Delivering the highest quality dairy products since 1946 HOME ABOUT COWS CROPS CHEESE TOURS EMPLOYMENT COMMUNITY BLOG CONTACT “Giving our best, from our families to yours” At Pagel’s Ponderosa, farming runs in our blood. We are undeniably a family farm. Family is at the core of everything we are and everything we stand for. Quality comes from working together with employees—some from third-generation farm backgrounds like us. Consistency comes from those same employees—many of whom have worked with us for a decade or more. The Pagels consider their 100+ employees as family, and our family’s passion for farming is contagious! With the trust and hard work of our employees, Pagel’s Ponderosa continues to set industry records.
