My brother Jim and I spent many wonderful summers working on dairy farms in Wisconsin owned by Mom's cousins, and as members of our local Boy Scout troop.
I grew up in a neighborhood that was surrounded by farms. There was a horse farm behind me and dairy farms on either side.
My first-ever visit to a cheese factory was in Tillamook Washington... yes, I am that nerdy.
I'm from San Bernardino, California. It's, like, all cows and dairies and very open.
Alexandre Antoine Davy de la Pailleterie - father of the future Alex Dumas - was born on February 26, 1714, in the Norman province of Caux, a region of rolling dairy farms that hung above great chalk cliffs on the northwest coast of France.
Wisconsin's a special place.
I became vegan because I saw footage of what really goes on in the slaughterhouses and on the dairy farms.
I love Wisconsin. It's a great place.
