Lazy
Dairy Farms, operated by George Armbrecht (left)
and Laura Riley received the Garden State Milk Council's
Dairy of Distinction Award recently from Council
President August Knispel. Lazy Dairy Farms is located
in Blairstown, Warren County. The Dairy of Distinction
honor is awarded annually to dairy operations that
are deemed the best representatives of the industry
by virtue of general farm maintenance, farm efficiency,
creativity, dedication and achievement in a rapidly
changing marketplace. The Lazy Dairy Farms covers
258 acres, including 90 acres of corn, 40 acres of
alfalfa and 128 acres of grass and woodland. The
dairy operation consists of 40 milking Holsteins
producing 500,000 pounds of milk per year with another
40 replacement animals. While Armbrecht does most
of the farm work, Riley takes care of the calves
and their four children, Doug, Paul, Justin and Cathy.
