ADA North East facilitates these types of interviews with local media stations to ensure that positive, factual dairy messaging is being shared with consumers. The Fryes milk 40 cows with one robotic milker, processing a portion of the milk into cheese under The Creamery at Pleasant Lane Farm label which is sold in Pittsburgh markets, and selling the rest to Turner Dairy in Pittsburgh.
Frye showed the TV reporter his farm’s robotic milking system, explaining the technology and the cows’ comfort with it. They also spent time at the calf barn where Frye explained the importance of caring for calves so they will grow to be “future cheesemakers.”
