Faye Bakeberg Waverly, Minn..; Wright County

Family: Greg (Butch) and I have been married 41 years. We have Àve children, Cindy, David, Tim, Mary and Pat. We also have 10 grandkids.

Tell us about your farm: We, along with our son Pat, farm in Wright County, Victor Township. Our son is the Àfth generation on this farm, which is a Century Farm, established in 1873. We milk 110 dairy cows and have dairy steers. The crops we grow are alfalfa, oats, wheat, soybeans and corn.

What’s the busiest time of day for you? The busiest time of the day for me is early morning feeding calves and again late afternoon.

How much time do you spend doing farmwork compared to housework? I spend about Àve hours doing farmwork on a normal day and housework is continuous. On a not so normal day, I can spend a lot more time on farm work.

What do you do in your free time and why? I love to be outside gardening and Àxing up the yard. Antiquing and bargain hunting for unique things to put outside and inside is another passion of mine. If it is raining or snowing outside, I love to curl up with a good book. My all-time favorite activity is watching my grandkids.

What’s the best thing about farming? The best thing about farming is being your own boss so you can take off for the day as work permits. Also walking out of the house in the early morning and either seeing the stars or hearing the birds singing.

When you look back on your life, what do you want to be remembered for? I would like to be remembered as a person who always had time and an open ear for her family and friends.

Do you have any ideas that could make farming easier for you and all farming women? I think every farm woman should have a cleaning and cooking robot or a cleaning and cooking woman inside so we could enjoy doing the things we love outside.

Minnesota Farm Bureau is proud to sponsor the dedicated women of the dairy industry
