Jan 24, 9:00-9:30AM CT – How grass-fed diary is better for people, cows and land

What: Deep Roots Radio recorded interview with Cheyenne Christianson, Wisconsin organic dairy farmer who sells through Organic Valley
When: Jan. 24, 2015, 9:00-9:30AM Central Time
Where: WPCA Radio, 93.1FM and streamed at www.wpcaradio.org
Why: Virtually all diary operations are built on the confinement model: lots of grains, use of antibiotics and hormones, and in some cases, limited access to pasture. Not so for Cheyenne who, with his wife and children operate Grazing Acres in Chetek, Wisconsin. Now more than 20 years into certified organic, grass-fed dairy management, he shares why he does it, the challenges and the many healthful rewards. Did you know that most dairy cows live less than four years? In contrast, Cheyenne has cows well over 14 years old.
