"Will Rogers, cowboy philosopher, actor and humorist, once
said, 'The farmer has to be an optimist or he wouldn't still be a
farmer.'
"William P. 'Will' Rogers, dairy farmer, would agree with that sentiment. And yes, he considers himself an optimist.
"Mr. Rogers, who milks a herd of 65 Holstein, Brown Swiss cross, and Normande cross cattle, ships 7,500 pounds of milk every other day through the Agri-Mark dairy cooperative.
"He is this year's winner of the Green Pastures Award, named Massachusetts Dairy Farm of the Year by the New England Green Pastures Program."
A recent Telegram & Gazette article profiled William Rogers and his insights on farming.
