Walnut Ridge Dairy in Lansing will be featured in the American Dairy Association North East’s newest episode of “The American Dairy Farmer.”
This is a digital series which highlights family, tradition and sustainable food production on local dairy farms. The show features Jake Palladino from Walnut Ridge Dairy in Lansing, New York. He is a Cornell University graduate and works to provide the best care to his cows and the people he manages daily.
“When I got to Cornell University and started taking agriculture and dairy classes, I fell in love with the science. I began to realize why we do all of these little things that we did when I was growing up and how important they are,” Palladino says. “My goal every day is to be a support system to the cows and the crew,” he continues.
