Dairying A Family Project at the Garnett Farm

Mark Rockers Jr. milks 60 Holsteins with help from his children Chris Dan and Pegare in a 4-H dairy project. Dan and Chris joined five years ago through Berea Boosters 4-H. Peg joined three years ago. They have shown at Richmond Ottawa Salina Lane fairs and earned red and blue ribbons. They hope to expand to cows, not just heifers. Milk provides most riboflavin in diets, proving essential for growth and health.
