In 2007 the Jauquets built a new milking parlor and freestall barn to increase their herd to about 600 cows.
2013 Wisconsin Outstanding Young Farmers, Dave and Stacy Jauquet, say that with only 40 acres of land owned by the dairy that feed consistency is key. While they purchase most of their feed, they rely on good partnerships with neighbors for quality feed for their cows.
Criteria for the award are based on community involvement, conservation, land stewardship, and progress in an agricultural career.
The Jauquets work hard to spread their message about dairy by hosting Breakfast on the Farm, and farm tours for local school children, and they will continue to “Speak Up for Agriculture,” yet another award that they received in 2013.
Each year the Wisconsin Jaycees organization has the opportunity to nominate farmers under the age of 40 to represent Wisconsin at the National Outstanding Young Farmer awards held the following year. This year’s state winners; Dave & Stacy Jauquet are the couple on the right. They’ll represent Wisconsin at the 58th Annual National Outstanding Young Farmer Awards Congress in Rapid City, SD next February.

Cheesemakers at Nasonville Dairy say that the milk from cows being fed a diet including flaxseed holds a little bit more moisture content so they’ve had to tweak some steps in the cheesemaking process to account for that. However, they do say the milk yields more cheese and develops a clean flavor.
Making cheese is nothing new at Nasonville Dairy, but recently they’ve begun making cheese with milk that has extra naturally occurring Omega-3 fatty acids due to dairy cows being fed flaxseed supplements.
A new cheese made at Nasonville Dairy using milk from cows being fed a special diet developed by Heartland Co-op and Omega Valley Farmers is making its way on to store shelves. The Omega Valley Farmers’ cheese has higher levels of naturally occurring Omega-3 fatty acids, which research shows may have added health benefits for humans.
Dairy cows at Dennis Engel’s farm, Clark Co Line Dairy, are fed a specialized diet that includes flaxseed. After one year on the program, Engel has noted that his cows are in better health, and fare better reproductively than before.
Members of Heartland Co-op which developed the specialized feed protocol are, from left to right, Doug Geiger, herdsman for Engel’s farm and his own, Toby Hovde, dairy nutritionist with Heartland Co-op, Brian Streveler, who helped develop the feed and was also the first farmer to produce milk with higher levels of Omega-3, and Dennis Engel who’s Clark Co Line Dairy cows are on the feed protocol.
