Windmill Holsteins Inc.

Windmill Holsteins Farm is home to a modern dairy operation with about 150 cows, milked using two DeLaval robotic systems that visitors can watch in action. The farm also operates a biogas plant, which turns organic waste—such as manure—into renewable energy that is sold to Nova Scotia Power.

On Open Farm Day, visitors can tour the dairy barn, see the robotic milking process, and join guided tours of the biogas facility. A BBQ will be offered from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with proceeds supporting community initiatives. Farm equipment will be on display, and there will be fun activities for children, making it a great day out for the whole family.
