“We knew that this building would last a long time just looking at the quality of the materials going into it. Probably the best part about working with a strong national [company] is the people who come to your farm, build the building, and are conscientious and do a good job. We’re really happy with the job that we got and we’re happy with the materials that are in that building.” Joel K., Woodstock, IL Kooistra Dairy Facility

Features That Add Function Ventilation is a key factor in any dairy operation. For the comfort of you and your cows, Morton offers natural and power ventilation options.

Your sales consultant can help you choose the placement of doors, windows and stalls to ensure the most efficient and safe working environment for you and your animals. While the function of your building and the health of your animals is vital, you may also consider the appearance of your new building.
