5 interesting facts about Gingue Brothers Dairy, LLC

First of all, I like the idea of having a page on a facebook and updating it all the time!

Second, I like the idea, that they post some vocabulary words there and explain what does it mean, so when you go to the excursion, you are able to understand everything they say.
Gestation is a term in reference with reproduction, it is the amount of time from insemination/conception to birth.

Third, I learned, that each American consumes an average of 29 pounds of cheese each year!

Fourth, very funny term: "bunk face" . This is what they call the exposed section of the bunk.  They try to keep as little of the bunk exposed as they can so the feed stays fresh.

Fifth, and the last, that the average dairy farm in Vermont has 130 cows.  They have approximately 600 total in their herd!


I`m looking forward to visit the farm. I saw the pictures on facebook and it seems, that the place is beautiful and I could take a lot of nice pictures!
