Morning rains kept the crowds down, but the amount of smiles and laughter remained high at the annual Kewaunee County Breakfast on the Farm hosted by the Kewaunee County Dairy Promotion Committee at Heim's Hillcrest Dairy in Algoma. Organizers had to call an audible the night before the event, asking attendees to park at Luxemburg-Casco High School in an effort to keep as many cars as possible off the farm's saturated fields. Despite the change, there was not an empty seat for the polka mass taking place while volunteers cooked eggs, fried cheese curds, baked pizzas, and scooped ice cream in anticipation of the thousands that have made the annual breakfast on Father's Day tradition. Hundreds of families still participated in the fun of the breakfast, farm tours, and children's activities, but the rainy weather kept the usual long lines from forming. Abby Heim from Heim's Hillcrest Dairy says having such large crowds visit her home farm was still surreal.
