Gray Gilmer established a commercial dairy on his family's farm in the early 1950s. Seventy years, three milking barns, 50,000+ milking shifts, and several million gallons of milk later, Gray's son David and grandson Will milked the family's dairy cows for the final time on February 27, 2023. The farm, now known as Gilmer Family Farm, continues on to this day as a commercial cow/calf beef cattle operation. Our family wishes to thank everyone in our local community and beyond for their support throughout these many decades. We are proud of our accomplishments within the dairy industry and look forward to continuing our family's agricultural legacy as cattle farmers.
