EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
Kim Seeley, President
Bradford County, Milky Way Farms
RD 1, Box 23
Troy, PA 16947
Kim Seeley is a dairy farmer/processor who, with his family, runs Milky Way Farms in Troy. Kim received a B.S. in Agricultural Economics from Penn State. After operating a dairy confinement system, Kim changed approaches due to general frustration and concerns over herd, customer, and farmers' health. Milky Way is now a fresh grass, dry hay based system. The herd is rotationally grazed and was created on-farm by cross-breeding seven purebred dairy breeds over eighteen years. The Seeleys produce milk, ice cream, cheese, and butter. In addition to selling retail, the farm provides the Pennsylvania College of Technology with all of their fluid milk.
Kim is co-founder of Northern Tier Sustainable Meat Co-op, which sells to Penn College and other local restaurants. He volunteered on his local Dairy Promotion Board including serving as board President.
Kim joined the PASA board in 1999 and currently serves as President.
