It's official!  The 2026 Wisconsin Farm Technology Days show will focus on No Joke Dairy in Stratford.

This family farm may have taken a break in dairying around 2011, but the passion for the industry has brought the family back into the circle again.  Brothers Matt and Sam Redeztke watched as their dad sold the herd of Holsteins they'd been milking  back in 2011.  Sam confesses at that time, it was the happiest day of his life.  He was sure he wouldn't miss those cows.  At the same time, brother Matt was working off the farm welding stainless steel on different projects that kept him moving.  Then fast forward to 2013 when the two brothers decided it was time to dairy again.

No Joke Dairy and Redeztke families will host the state's largest outdoor agriculture event July 14-16, 2026.
