Last week, Erie County Legislator Joe Lorigo congratulated Brooke Gerhardt on being crowned the 2019-2020 Erie County Dairy Princess and received a tour of her family’s dairy farm in Marilla.

An Iroquois High School graduate, Brooke has been involved in 4-H and regularly works on her family’s farm. Brooke plans to attend college for business management and eventually open an agricultural camp for children to continue her prior work with 4-H. She was officially crowned Dairy Princess June 8th at the Springville Agriculture and Dairy Festival in conjunction with National Dairy Month.

Legislator Lorigo said, “It was an honor to congratulate Brooke and take a tour of her family’s farm last week. Dairy farms are an important part of our local economy and it was great to get a glimpse of the hard work they do every single day. Brooke’s involvement in farming and 4-H is truly admirable, and part of the reason why she is so deserving of this recognition. I wish her the best of luck in continuing her education!”
