The Senator of Sunnyhome – DICK CARLSON
Sunnyhome Farm has been around a long time. A very long time – since 1905! Our Holstein Senator, Dick Carlson, hasn’t been around quite as long - dairyman, industry influencer, pedigree man and Master Breeder. Beyond his Sunnyhome breeding success, Dick had some very interesting side stories. But we’re going to dial the time machine back to Dick’s ancestors, who came from far, far away, to settle in Matsqui. Click to read the full story.
