When our cows spend the night in the barn, they need to have some straw to keep them dry and comfortable. We purchased rotary chopped straw that has been perfect to bed with right out of the bale. This last bale was cut a little bit longer than we'd like to bed with so we decided to use our small bedding chopper to chop it a bit shorter. We use a gas-powered chopper, but there are electric ones out there too. After chopping the bedding, we quickly sweep the bedding up to the front of the stall. Alan gives a quick rundown of how the bedding chopper works. Lastly, our barn is quite old and the original stanchions are obviously showing wear and tear. While we save up money to hopefully put tie stalls in, we have to find temporary solutions. We made a makeshift tie stall that uses the stanchion frame.

Trinity Dairy was established in 2006, in Minnesota. Alan and Jennifer farm with their 5 children; Jessica, Justin, Jordan, Joshua, and Jason. We milk a mix of 33 Jersey, Holstein, Brown Swiss, Guernsey, and Ayrshire cattle. We also enjoy sharing our family's love of Draft Horses and using them for logging and other farm work. Dairy Farming in Minnesota can be challenging, but it's a lifestyle we really enjoy. Subscribe today to watch our small family dairy farm and family grow while continuing to thank our Lord for the blessings we've been given.
