  Every fair has something unique to offer, whether it's cookies and milk, a building dedicated to Wisconsin agriculture, or the iconic butter sculptures found in Minnesota and Iowa. Today, we're hearing the many dairy connections that bring these traditions to life, from showcasing dairy farming to highlighting the foods, exhibits and experiences visitors can enjoy at these Midwestern state fairs. Wisconsin State Fair Dairy Promotion Board President Nicole Barlass shares how dairy exhibits and experiences have grown and changed over the years on the fairgrounds near Milwaukee. A longtime volunteer, Barlass discusses Dairy Lane, daily dairy and goat milking demonstrations, youth dairy shows and the award-winning products recognized through the state fair dairy products contest, many of which fairgoers can sample from the board’s stands. Next, former Princess Kay of the Milky Way Brenna Bobendreier, now Minnesota and North Dakota farmer relations manager for Midwest Dairy, highlights Minnesota's celebrated dairy traditions. She talks about the butter sculptures carved in the likenesses of Princess Kay finalists, dairy-focused educational partnerships and exhibits such as the Eco Experience and the many ways fairgoers can experience dairy during their visit. The episode concludes with Mitch Schutte, vice president of agricultural affairs at Midwest Dairy, who shares how dairy comes to life at the Iowa State Fair.

  Innovation, Education and Perseverance in Dairy Farming

  Jul 13, 202635 minS1

  Today's episode highlights how dairy farmers are adapting, persevering and educating consumers in addition to hearing manure sampling tips ahead of this year's North American Manure Expo. We begin with Monica Enyart, who discusses the automation technologies her family added to their farm as their children grew and responsibilities both on and off the farm grew. The Enyarts used a Choose Iowa Dairy Innovation Grant to help with the cost of adding the automation. The grants are awarded each year to farms looking to adopt technologies that reduce labor and increase on-farm processing of Iowa dairy products. Next, Sara Ruehling shares the story of the Scott County Fair's Miracle of Birth Center, which was founded by her father, Ken Gliszcinski. Visitors to the exhibit can watch animals give birth, pet newborn calves, milk a fiberglass cow made by Ken and ask volunteers questions. Ruehling discusses her favorite aspects of the exhibit and how it helps educate consumers about the dairy industry. We then hear from Andrew Golberg of Golberg's Lakeview Dairy in Minnesota. Andrew and his wife began their operation with about 50 cows in a compost barn after graduating from the University of Minnesota in 2006. Despite starting from scratch and experiencing many challenges, the couple never gave up on being dairy farmers, or expanding their farm. Closing today's episode is Melissa Wilson, who previews an upcoming session at the North American Manure Expo in Wayne, Nebraska. Wilson shares manure sampling best practices and explains why collecting a representative sample is essential, given the wide variability in manure nutrient content. She also offers a perspective on viewing manure and fertilizer nutrients as assets in a bank account with resources that can be measured, managed and maximized for operational efficiency.

  Milking Cows, Making Cheese, Running and Dairy Royalty

  Jun 29, 202631 minS1

  A dairy family's journey into cheese production, the next generation taking the reins of a family farm, one of marathon running's most iconic races and the newly crowned Miss Wisconsin USA are all heard on today's episode. First, hear how a multigenerational dairy family has launched Compass Rose Creamery, converting an old milking parlor barn into a cheese facility. Brian and Jill Nelson and their son, Isaac, have forayed into the world of value-added processings and are planning to have cheese aging rooms to produce specialty artisan cheese in the future, and facilities in Minnesota to work with fresh cheese curds are already up and running. Then, brothers Jake and Nick Stadick share what it means to become the fourth generation to own and operate their family dairy farm. They are incorporating genomic data, smarter breeding strategies and new barn technology to make the farm their own while still holding on to wisdom from their parents. Next, legendary marathon runner Dick Beardsley reflects on one of the greatest races in history. Raised helping on his grandfather's dairy farm in Minnesota, Beardsley began running marathons at the age of 21, and in 1982, ran the race of his life in the Boston Marathon — a famous contest dubbed the 'Duel in the Sun.' He finished the race 1.6 seconds behind Alberto Salazar, after running closely with him for miles as both broke the American and Boston Marathon records. The episode concludes with the newly crowned 2026 Miss Wisconsin USA Olivia Lulich. An agriculture teacher and FFA advisor, Lulich says the lessons she learned in the show ring at county fairs stayed with her as she competed for the opportunity. Agriculture served as her platform as she became the state's representative for Miss USA. Lulich hopes to promote agricultural awareness to a public growing more distant from the farm.
