[KOHLSDORF] We're here at Hansen's Dairy near Hudson.

Spread across over 400 acres of gently rolling farmland, this family run operation has earned a trusted name for its farm fresh dairy products.

Let's take a look around.

♪♪ [KOHLSDORF] Well, we're here with Jordan Hansen at Hansen Dairy.

You're giving us a tour of this place?

It's great.

This is a real working dairy farm.

[JORDAN HANSEN] It is.

[KOHLSDORF] So give us a little history.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yeah.

So the farm has been in our family for over 150 years.

Right now, we actually have the sixth and seventh generation of the family that's living here and working here.

[KOHLSDORF] How many cows do you have on your farm right now?

[JORDAN HANSEN] So we have about 300 total.

We have Holstein dairy cows.

We have mostly black and white Holsteins.

We have a few red and white Holsteins as well.

And then we have our Wagyu Holstein beef herd that lives alongside the dairy.

[TOUR GUIDE] We're gonna go ahead and head outside and get on the trolley so we can make our way down to the farm for our tour.

[KOHLSDORF] So you have people who come and visit and tour your farm from all over the world, people who have maybe never been on a farm before, those city folk.

Right?

[JORDAN HANSEN] Right.

[KOHLSDORF] What are some of the things that they're going to see?

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yeah.

So we bring them on a trolley ride down to the farm from our tour center, and then we're going to do the whole tour on foot.

And so they really get to see the behind the scenes of everything that we do here.

First stop is usually going to be to feed the calves.

So they're always hungry.

They're always excited to see the tourists.

And then we will go over and get to see the kangaroos, which is our farm mascot.

And so that is a really unique experience for people.

Most people don't get to get that close up and personal with the kangaroos.

[KOHLSDORF] Okay.

How did kangaroos end up on a dairy farm?

[JORDAN HANSEN] My husband had visited Australia, really liked the kangaroos that he saw there.

He wanted to get them as pets and the tourists really liked to interact with them just because it's not an experience you get everywhere.

♪♪ [KOHLSDORF] Oh, okay.

Okay.

We are on the farm and things are happening.

What is this?

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yeah.

So this is a brand new baby.

She was just born probably a couple of hours ago.

And you can tell they're able to walk right away.

Peeking out around the corner there.

[KOHLSDORF] Yeah.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Well, do you want to take a tour?

The calves are hungry.

We can go feed one right now.

[KOHLSDORF] Yes, I'd love to!

♪♪ [KOHLSDORF] Ready to feed the babies.

How is this different than feeding a real baby?

What do I need to do?

[JORDAN HANSEN] Well, it's a lot the same.

It's just a lot bigger bottle.

Okay, so we're going to make sure that she is figuring it out here.

She was just born yesterday.

[KOHLSDORF] Oh.

Whoops.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Oh, there you go.

[KOHLSDORF] I got it all over you.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yep.

And then you just have to tilt it up like a real bottle.

This is something that the tours get to help with.

[KOHLSDORF] I bet this is one of the highlights of the tour.

[JORDAN HANSEN] It sure is.

[KOHLSDORF] Well, I think she's full.

Okay, so we've seen some baby cows, and now we're going to see a baby kangaroo?

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yep.

I'm super excited to show you.

Let's go.

[KOHLSDORF] I can't wait.

♪♪ [JORDAN HANSEN] All right, here she is.

This is Ruthie.

[KOHLSDORF] Oh my gosh.

I am holding a baby kangaroo.

I never thought that was something I would do.

The cuteness.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yes.

[KOHLSDORF] Oh my goodness.

And she weighs nothing.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yep.

[KOHLSDORF] I can't take it.

Who knew that it would take coming to a dairy farm to hold a baby kangaroo?

[JORDAN HANSEN] Right?

[KOHLSDORF] Look at this.

Oh.

♪♪ [KOHLSDORF] After touring the barns, feeding the cattle and bouncing around with the kangaroos, stop by Hansen's Tour Center to check out their local Iowa foods from milk to steaks and even ice cream.

♪♪ [KOHLSDORF] Jordan, thanks for showing us around today.

It's been a lot of fun.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Yeah, absolutely.

[KOHLSDORF] Now we get to try the products.

This is the hard part, but someone's got to do it right.

Okay.

[JORDAN HANSEN] Cheers.

[KOHLSDORF] Yes.

Cheers.

♪♪ [KOHLSDORF] It's good.
