Farms: New York Dairy Farmers: Pride & Progress with Jon Gilbert (2 of 6)

While many dairy farms across New York State have evolved from small mom-and-pop operations to larger, extended family operations, dairy farmers are progressive and passionate people. They love their job, which is to care for their animals and the land, as well as their family, and they take that responsibility seriously. Hear their stories and witness their passion in this video produced by the New York Animal Agriculture Coalition. Meet Jon Gilbert, owner of Scipio Springs Dairy with his partner Bill Morgan, in Union Springs, NY. This is the second of six videos in this series that debuted at the Dairy Cow Birthing Center at the 2014 New York State Fair.
