The Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association is sounding the alarm. It sent a letter to the U.S. Department of Agriculture asking Secretary Brooke Rollins to immediately release funding for the Dairy Business Innovation Initiatives. The program froze this week. The stoppage of nearly $29 million dollars stands to impact 420 dairy businesses nationwide. Hidden Springs Creamery in Westby is one of them. On the farm, Travis Forgues manages 80 acres and milks 300 sheep for their farmstead cheese. Before the federal government froze the money, the DBIA was supposed to be a tool for Travis to supplement his own investments in growing the farm and creamery. It's not the only frozen program that's creating sleepless nights for Travis -- he also has a loan through the REAP program for his solar array that came online in January. That too, is stopped.
