See Cows Milk Themselves At A Remarkable Wisconsin Robotic Dairy Farm
Wisconsin is known for its dairy game, and there is one dairy farm here that gives visitors a glimpse into the future. Hinchleys Dairy Farm in Cambridge, Wisconsin, has been around for a very long time — but step inside and you’ll see a farm that won’t resemble your grandparent’s farm. This modern farm uses robotic technology; you may be surprised to see how much tech goes into a glass of milk these days! Here’s why you need to take a peek inside Hinchley’s Dairy Farm.
Hinchley's is a dairy farm that’s located just east of Cambridge, Wisconsin -- it’s about 20 miles from Madison and is an easy day trip from most areas in the southern part of the state.
For more than two decades the farm has offered tours to the public. It’s a chance to learn about all the various farm animals, get details on food production, hear about the progress of farming over time, and experience a little bit of farm life.
You’ll notice that life has changed quite a bit on the farm. In 2018 the farm invested in robotic technology that completely transformed life for the farmers and the cows.
The farm’s technology allows the cows to decide when they want to eat, drink, relax, or be milked. It’s helped keep the cows and the farmers stay relaxed and stress free.
While the tour showcases modern-day dairy technology, they haven’t forgotten the old ways around here. Tour attendees get a chance to milk cows the traditional way – by hand!
Hinchley’s Dairy Farm offers tours year round. Their website has details on hours and availability. To experience more Wisconsin farm magic, head to this delicious food destination.
