Experts who raise, as well as show each type of animal across Illinois and the midwest will be sharing their knowledge on the animals in which they are familiar. . Such experts include Bill Berghorn of Hartman Dairy farm of West Dundee. Bill is herdsman and fitter of their third top herd in the nation, based\ on the breed classification system.
