Wisconsin Pheasants Forever/Quail Forever and the Professional Dairy Producers of Wisconsin are hosting a tour of Sassy Cow Creamery near Columbus this weekend to highlight some of these practices and the benefits they provide to the environment, cows and dairy farms.
The tour will be held on June 25 as part of the larger Wisconsin PF/QF State Convention in Sun Prairie. Shuttle transportation will be provided for all participants, with a bus departing from the North Bristol Sportsman's Club at 2:00 p.m. and returning at 3:45 p.m.
At Sassy Cow Creamery, tour participants will hear from PF/QF precision agriculture and conservation specialists talking about how to work with agriculture producers to create habitats and see conservation practices that have been implemented on the 600-cow dairy farm. The farms are placed on 1,700 acres of pasture and fields of corn, soybeans, alfalfa and wheat.
