Check it out! Minnesota Upstream was featured in the Central Minnesota Catholic Magazine! ✍️ This article introduces Brad Donnay, Leanne Donnay, and family, who are parishioners at Holy Cross in Pearl Lake/Marty, Minnesota. Together, they operate a 10-acre dairy farm in Kimball, which uses sustainable farming practices and avoids products that contain genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) and chemicals. 🧑‍ Their 160 goats eat locally-sourced feed when possible and also have access to pasture. 🐐We are proud The Donnay's are supporters of “Upstream, Loving Where We Live,” our initiative that seeks to make a change by amplifying Minnesotans’ shared connections to a place with a spirit of optimism. As said best by Brad, “Caring for the land is important to us, as is sharing our story with others, I’m not trying to showcase Donnay Dairy like an advertisement, but we’re doing things that might inspire others to be good stewards for Minnesota’s land. Upstream is a new way to share our story — it brings people together from every aspect of life.” 🌞Read more here: https://thecentralminnesotacatholic.org/minnesota-upstream-initiative-celebrates-loving-where-we-live/#Minnesotaupstream — from Instagram
