Small Family Dairy Farm

Donation protected
I am asking for help to keep our small family dairy and beef farm going. My husband (who won't ask anyone for help ever) and I along with our five children (all ages 6 and under) recently took a leap of faith to follow our dreams of living/working on a small dairy/beef farm. We have a small 100 acre farm and milk 50 cows and raise up steers for beef. We love the idea of our food being raised by a good old fashioned american family farm. But that is not an easy task... right as we got started a drought set in here in South West Missouri and so hay prices shot up to $100 per bale and dairy prices dropped really low $14.00 per hundred weight compared to $24.00 per hundred weight in 2014 that is a $10.00 drop making it very hard for dairy farms to keep going so much so that dairy farmers suicide rates have gone way up and family farms are becoming extinct. This is not just a business, this farm is our dream our livelihood and our family's passion we refuse to give up on farming. Please donate, with your help we can pay off the loan for our cows ($50,000 or $700 a month) and get back on our feet. This money would go to paying off our cows and buying hay for our cows to keep the family farm going for many generations to come any donation would help make a difference. Thank you and God Bless!
