Farming
In order to diversify some of our dairy risk, in November 2007 Dyecrest started buying farm ground in the Torrington Wyoming area. This is a small valley in southeastern Wyoming near the Nebraska border. I have bought most of my dairy hay in that area for many years. It has great soils, lots of water and with an elevation of 4000 feet produces excellent quality alfalfa hay. Torrington is only 125 miles from Dyecrest Dairy so the haul is not exorbitant.
