Gasser Farms is truly a family-run dairy farm. Virgil Gasser operates the farm with the help of his four sons: Aaron, Stephen, David, and Nathan, producing 45,000 pounds of milk every day. On the Gasser Farm, a more natural approach is used with their cows. Newborn calves are penned separately, and are fed their own mother’s milk for the first 10 days. They are also one of the few farms to use calf feeders, pasteurizing any excess or substandard milk and feeding it back to the calves. This saves about $2,000 per month on feed. Calves are then placed with the regular herd after about two years.
