August 2023 Newsletter: Trip to Argentina

As the warmth of summer envelops us, we extend our heartfelt wishes to all our valued readers. Yesterday marked a momentous occasion as we celebrated our 33rd anniversary. Reflecting on this journey, we are reminded of the days when Peter and I first began our venture into the dairy industry. It was a time before smart phones, when the prospect of raising replacement heifers seemed both daunting and exhilarating. Thus began an adventure that has been our life’s work and passion.

Friends and family may have questioned our industry entry, yet a partner of open-mindedness, diligence, fervor, and respect was our guiding light.

THE TRIP

Recently, an unforeseen opportunity led us to the captivating landscapes of Argentina. The voyage was a three-plane endeavor, but the rewards far exceeded the exertion. Argentina, a land renowned for its cultural tapestry and natural splendor, held untold wonders waiting to be discovered.

Argentina is renowned for several distinct facets that define its identity:

The Decline in Forest:

Argentina is home to several jungle regions, the most notable one being the Misiones Rainforest in the northeastern part of the country. The devastation of the jungle is a complex and concerning issue. This destruction is driven by various factors, many of which are rooted in human activities. Below shows a map of the forest declining from 1900 to 2010.

Trip to Argentina

Addressing the devastation of jungles requires a multi-faceted approach that involves government policies, sustainable land use practices, community engagement, and international collaboration. We are all connected and we need nature, but it doesn’t need us.

As we immerse ourselves in the sights, sounds, and stories of Argentina, we are reminded once again of the profound beauty that exists beyond our borders. With every journey, we continue to learn, grow, and share the wisdom gleaned from each experience.

With gratitude and enthusiasm,
