The Miracle of Life on the Farm – Calving Season Ep. 36


Listen Later

It’s spring time and that means babies on the farm! In today’s conversation, Brady Zuck, a beef producer from Northern Wisconsin, is back to talk about the miracle of life (you can catch our previous conversation - Cows: More than meat and milk Ep. 12). Right now on his farm, he’s getting about 15+ calves a day – let’s just say it’s keeping him very busy. He explains how this process compares to human pregnancy and birth, the recordkeeping farmers use to make sure you’re getting the best quality and consistency in your favorite beef products and just how quickly these new little babies will be up and walking after birth – it’s truly just minutes.

Amy HERE - Calving season is truly my favorite time of year of the farm.  I have so many wonderful memories growing up on my family’s beef farm in Northern Indiana. I can also say now that I’m a mom myself, I have a new appreciation for what these animals can do. I’m so excited to take you on this journey today!

May is Beef Month and as it comes to a close we look ahead to June which is Dairy Month. Throughout the month of June, we will be taking you to dairy farms and exploring how all of our favorite dairy products make it to our grocery store shelves.   We’ll even explore some fun facts about your favorite products.  You can see more of this by following along in our extended conversations on social media.
