Hosting a family-friendly event is nothing new for Lazy J Dairy owner Cody Jeanquart. It is a daily occurrence.
The fourth-generation farmer will welcome thousands to his Luxemburg operation on July 5 as the host of this year's Sevastopol FFA Dairy Breakfast. It marks the southernmost location ever for the event.
In addition to enjoying a breakfast featuring several Door County-produced products, visitors will be able to tour the farm, where approximately 150 dairy cows are milked every day and more than 200 additional animals are raised.
Lazy J Dairy puts the "family" in "family farm." Jeanquart said 95% of the labor on the farm is provided by family members, whether they are caring for the animals or working the fields. He is excited to show visitors how the farm's crossbreeding program has helped the operation achieve a favorable work-life balance.
Jeanquart hopes the event's regular attendees make the trip south not only to check out the farm but also to continue supporting the Sevastopol FFA and its programming. Sevastopol FFA Alum Tim Ash says the money raised at the organization's sole fundraiser goes a long way.
The Sevastopol FFA Dairy Breakfast runs from 6 to 11:30 a.m.
