Digester on a Dairy Farm
Lois and Maurice Maxwell started Maxwell’s Neighborhood Farm in 1957. Four sons (Stewart, Bradley, Anthony, and Jeffrey) and a grandson, Matthew, now operate the approximately 800 cow dairy. The Maxwells pursued a methane, or anaerobic, digester as a way to diversify their operation at a time of low milk prices.
