Wisconsin Holstein enthusiasts had the chance to spend St. Patty's Day at the first of three Barn Meetings sponsored by the Wisconsin Holstein Association. Today's meeting was held at Bella-View Holsteins, owned by Lynn & Sara Harbaugh and family, near Marion, WI. In addition to viewing the Harbaugh's heifer-raising facility and learning of their heifer program, guests listened to a presentation on show heifer nutrition by Nick Uglow of Vita Plus.
The remaining barn meetings in this series will be held at Oeh-My Farm in Abbotsford, WI on Thursday, March 20 and Thursday, March 27th at Walk-Era Farms near Wisconsin Dells, WI. Please visit the Wisconsin Holstein Association website at www.wisholsteins.com for further details.
