About Six Sons Farm
Three his, three hers—all ours.
"Do you really have SIX sons?" customers often ask, in a curious yet sympathetic tone. The answer is a smiling yes, in a blended family way. And we couldn't be happier.
We're Dale Gasser and Judy Fossen. Married to each other—and to the land of Dale's 4th-generation family farm in the hills of rural Sauk City, Wisconsin.
​
Dale grew up working dairy cows, hogs and field crops. Then spent decades burning the candle at both ends, by working a full-time off-farm career in water conservation in addition to farming. Now retired, he's thrilled to be able to spend more time where his heart is—here on the farm.
​
Judy grew up on a semi-retired Century Farm in the Town of Dunn, south of Madison. In addition to 20-plus years as a freelance marketing copywriter (Lumen Communications), she has also expanded her gardening fervor and launched our small farm foods business, Six Sons Farm.
​
Both of us love being outdoors, eating hearty homegrown food, and cheering on any team from our alma mater, UW-Madison. We met later in life, in 2013, but it was clear from the beginning that we made a great team. Six Sons Farm—three his, three hers, all ours.
