| Four T Acres Profile | |
|
This is a farm that is on my (Jeans grandfathers) farm. It is also a family run farm with our son-in-law David Larson his wife and our daughter Janet, our son Randy and myself Jean and my husband Richard Gruenert. The farm is small by farm standards of about 100 acres, with 9 acres being in Kenosha county and the rest in Racine county. Walworth county used to be almost in the back side of the farm too.Charlie Nash (Nash Car company) bought some of the farm to denote to the Kenosha County Boy Scouts many years ago. It is a real thrill for young campers to see the great shaggy beasts right across the fence when they camp for the night or the weekend. We started Four T farm 8 years ago on the 1st of June and have come a long way since three cows and five calves, our totals combined at this time are 63. We do sell both our cattle as well as our beef with a lot of repeat customers that just love it. Our three grandsons show at the Walworth fair as that is their 4-h show and we also show at the Racine fair, beside the district show near LaCrosse. Our farm also belongs to the Burlington Chamber of Commerce, which opens up a lot of new territory as far as advertising at home shows, markets, and the directory that goes out to all members, it also gets us advertising at hotels and resort areas that were previously out of our reach.
