Dairy goat farmer Fred Vos will fulfil a life-long dream to milk cows if he’s picked for a new entrant quota assistance program that debuts this fall in Ontario and four other eastern Canadian provinces.
“I just really feel that’s my calling,” says the 40-year-old Hagersville-area farmer, who has wanted to milk cows since he was 10 or 11 years old.
