from Hazerswoude village
I was eager to become a farmer since I was knee-high to grasshopper. And I am now a proud fifth generation dairy farmer. It’s a marvellous feeling to watch our cows graze in the meadow, turning fresh grass into high quality milk. The decision to automate our milking parlour means I now have sufficient time to do what I really care about, looking after my cows. A happy cow is a grand sight!
Regards, Bart
