“I have such a passion for farming that I cannot imagine life without raising and caring for animals and growing crops and produce,” said Cheri Sauerer.

Sauerer, who did not grow up on a farm, has farmed with her husband, Don, on the 227-acre farm south of Avon where he grew up since they married in 1982.

DCBL Acres, named for Don, Cheryl, daughter Becky who passed away at age 15, and daughter Lynn, began with dear family friend Lawrence Raden. See more in Jennie Zeitler’s Dairyland Peach story.
