Enjoy Ruined roads and torn up pavement that is. Numerous 4-6,000 head dairies here in Gratiot county. 75% are owned by Belgians and Hollanders that come here for tax breaks. One of the big boys here has started moving over into Montcalm County, unfortunately for them. They use the "right to farm act" to protect them for everything. They can legally haul full weight loads of anything farm related during frost laws,and so can any anyone bonded to them. If you live on a nice paved road, they'll beat the base out of it after a couple winters of full loads during frost laws. If you live on a nice gravel road, better hope you have 4WD in spring. If a STX500 can get down it with a 3-5 axle tanker, they'll be hauling on it. Usually, the American dairies of the same size try to be more courteous to their neighbors. They will pay to have gravel put down when they tear it up. They will have roads they haul on chlorided before they haul manure. The foreigners do not, I have no use for them. I have first hand experience with this. Understand, I have nothing against dairy farms or even the countries they come from, but, there are less greedy and more courteous ways to go about it. Lets hope yours is American owned.

It was a cold Thanksgiving evening, and we were going up to her Grandparents house. As we passed one of their barns, I noticed something orange in the corner of my eye in this old shed.
