In January 2013 we had accepted that the barn would not be built; the money was gone, and we were facing the fact that we had to sell our cows and livestock, we had no way to milk them and nowhere to go. We were out of time.
It's a long story... there have been articles written about what happened here on this farm... but suffice to say that our barn was built by love.
A love spearheaded by Miss Tonya Ward, President and Founder of Energy Rescue, Inc. She took it upon herself to begin fundraising for us after we had a contractor take off with the barn construction funds over $40,000.00 from our 89 year old Farmer.
It is because of her work to organize fundraising efforts and Energy Rescue, Inc volunteers and sponsors that we stand here today.
Last year we held a working event called FARM FEST 2013 and volunteers came from all over to help us finish building this barn.
This year, the barn is complete! Farmer Andy is milking his grass-fed & finished Jersey Cows! Farmer Laura is making delicious cream top chocolate milk, sugar-free dark chocolate milk, puddings, yogurts, and many different lovely cheeses!
We are so very grateful to all the people who helped make this dream come true... Thank You Very Much To Each Of You! Your contributions helped us complete this barn and we are very blessed.
This Barn Built By Love, was so well built that the City Inspector gave us a Restaurant Kitchen License so we can get our Farm Fresh Products in stores and homes all over! :)
MILK FEST 2014! Celebrates Nebraska's Dairy Farmers and Artisans!
