2011 Western Championship and Red & White Show


2011_Western_Champ_PackThe Pineybrook Holsteins crew had a fun and successful show at the Lawrence County Fairgrounds for the Western Championship and the Red & White Shows.  All in all, the weather was nice and we all had a good time.  The cows showed well and we were fairly happy with our placing in the classes.  Winning Reserve Champion of the Red & White show with the Fall Yearling in Milk was exciting.  We hope she can keep it up in the upcoming shows.







Below are some highlights from the Western Championship Show and Red & White Show:

Ream Family Generations

Farming is not all about crops and cow families.  It also is about working together as a family, learning responsibility and overcoming challenges.  Shown below is the entire Ream Family.  While brothers Mark and Dan have continued the family tradition of farming, Mike and Scott still help from time to time.  Getting together for family activities is always fun for all.
