This Friday meet Robbie and Shannon Dygert, thirteenth-generation dairy farmers of Dygert Farms in Palatine Bridge, New York, an operation that has been in the family for over 300 years. The original farmstead was deeded to the family in 1723 by the British royal family and has been run as a dairy ever since. Robbie and Shannon took over ownership of the farm in 2009 to steer it into the fourth century of operation.
