Current owner/operator Marty McGuire has a wish that “hopefully, being bestowed this award will bring more attention to the rich dairy history that Michigan has, and will ultimately benefit all of its farmers in some way or another”.  This award, coupled with the swelling local food movement in MI, will allow Guernsey Farms Dairy to compete on a more level playing field with the large, corporate dairies.
