Listen to Our Latest “Cow-Side Conversations” Podcast
In this episode of
Cow-Side Conversations, Trenton Canon and Josie Offerdahl (the fifth generation on Canon Dairy in Mercer County, PA) share how they are focusing on diversity as a way to grow. In this interview with the siblings, Trent talks about some of their cropping strategies and farm management practices – from robotic milking technology to cover cropping and direct marketing with beef. Josie describes the creamery side of their business and how processing their own milk is helping secure their farm’s future.
As the next generation, the siblings open up about what brought each of them back to their family farm and how their personal goals both play a role in diversifying Canon Dairy. From pursuing regenerative cropping strategies and an expansion of their beef herd to making all of their milk A2 through breeding and investing in a cream separator, they share how diversification is key to their future growth.
