Time to milk the cows

Meet Jim Jessen. He’s an account executive at BR who grew up in the suburbs of Milwaukee and — prior to this week — had never even touched a cow (let alone milked one).

In honor of June Dairy Month, we thought we’d give Jim a mission: Milk your first cow.

Earlier this week, Jim and a few BR “aggies” traveled to Mapleton Valley Farms in Oconomowoc. Jim — who was worried his arms would be sore from all the milking — took the plunge.

Since this was his first milking experience, we wanted to find him a good instructor, so he could learn the proper way to milk. Phyllis Agnew, owner of the farm, gave Jim a tutorial before we let him loose. Check out the video below to see how it went!
