It's the busiest time of the year for our Wisconsin Christmas Tree Growers.  Stephanie Hoff ventures out to Hann's Christmas Tree Farm to visit with Gregg Hann about the growing season, consumer trends and more.

There's a brand new cheese processing facility coming online in Wisconsin just outside of Madison.  Nate Zimdars visits with Tim Omar, President and Managing Director of Emmi Roth.  Their new 158,000 square foot, state of the art cheese handling facility is creating new products, and new jobs.

Ryan Yonkman, vice president of EverAg, says while those new processing facilities may be great - filling them with milk may become a challenge.  Yonkman says the profitability just isn't there right now for dairies to increase milk production at a time when available heifer numbers are tight.  He also says there's only a small window left for seasonal holiday buying - and it's closing fast.
