Our purebred Brown Swiss cows, Daphne and Pepper, were lovingly raised on the island in the 4H program as milking cows. Once Daphne could not produce milk anymore, she needed a new retirement home, and her sister Pepper got to join her.

They each weigh about 2,000 lbs and eat local Orchard hay each a day. They also go crazy for their grain and C.O.B snacks! They both love afternoon naps in their shelter, and will sit or stand for hours while you brush them, especially for chin rubs.
