and operated by Duane and Marilyn Hershey in southeastern Pennsylvania.
They recently expanded from a 65 tie stall barn to a 400 cow parlor and free stall
barn. The cows are milked three times a day in a double 12 parallel
parlor with a small special needs area beside the parlor. The free stall
barn is bedded with sand. The sand is managed by a flushing large amounts
of water in the alleys and is seperated by a two stage pit system. The
water from the second stage pit is recycled to re-flush the free stall area.
