El-Na Farms prepared for second helping of Breakfast on the Farm

If you missed some or all of the fun at last year's Kewaunee County Breakfast on the Farm, Lonnie Fenendael and the team at El-Na Farms in Algoma hope you attend this year.

 

El-Na Farms is home to Kewaunee County's first rotary milking parlor and has about 2,500 cows on 7,500 acres.

 

When the previous host for the 2026 Breakfast on the Farm had to withdraw, the Fenendael family stepped in to ensure the signature event of the Kewaunee County Dairy Promotion Committee remained on a working farm.

 

 

 

The timing has worked out in their favor. For starters, the fields typically used for parking were planted with the same crops as last year, a key factor in helping organizers find a host farm. Fenendael said there is less pressure this year after hosting the event in 2025, and favorable weather has helped El-Na Farms get ahead of schedule in some areas.

 

Fenendael said many of last year's popular activities will return while also showcasing technology that highlights the dairy industry's continued evolution.

 

 

 

The Kewaunee County Breakfast on the Farm will take place June 21, beginning with a church service at 7 a.m., followed by breakfast from 8 a.m. to noon.

 

Approximately 45 to 50 dairy breakfasts are held across Wisconsin each year in celebration of June Dairy Month, including the Sevastopol FFA Dairy Breakfast at Lazy J Dairy in Brussels on July 5.
