Blue Sky Farms officials broke ground for the Twin Circle Dairy near Lewis Kansas, April 26. The dairy is expected to be home to nearly 25,000 cows and construction should be completed in 2025. Currently Blue Sky Farms has six dairies in Texas and another location where heifer calves are developed. More farm locations provide feed for the cows and heifers, as well as a harvest and hauling business. Watch for more information from the groundbreaking event and speakers.
