United States: 10-20-2024: Brookfield Dairy Farm, located in Loudoun County, is a family-owned and operated farm with a long and rich history in dairy farming. With a commitment to wholesome practices and sustainable farming, Brookfield Dairy Farm produces high-quality milk, cream and butter. The Harrisons have deep roots in the dairy farming industry over generations. Greg grew up on the historic Brookfield Dairy Farm in Loudoun County. With a personal and extensive background in dairy farming spanning over 55 years, Greg took a hiatus in 1984 while building another business, but rediscovered his passion for the industry when their daughter, Eleanor, became involved in 4-H dairy cows and showing a decade ago. Motivated by their desire to support the local dairy industry and promote farm-to-table food initiatives, Greg and Sue decided to venture into the ice cream business, bringing their expertise and dedication to providing high-quality dairy products to the community. Brookfield Dairy Farm, situated south of Leesburg on Harmony Church Road, boasts a picturesque location just 2 miles west of Rt. 15. The farm spans approximately 100 owned and leased acres and is home to a growing herd of 35 prize winning dairy cows, with more expected to join soon. The farm takes pride in its registered Brown Swiss and Holstein cows, known for their exceptional milk quality and specific qualities. Brown Swiss cows produce high-fat, high-protein milk, making it ideal for cheese production. These docile, friendly and adaptable cows are known for their longevity and tolerance to extreme temperatures. . (Photo by Douglas Graham)
