Kerry Goodland
Calf & Youngstock Specialist
Having grown up on the family dairy farm in Somerset, when the farm was sold in 2014, Kerry travelled to New Zealand working on a 500 cow dairy farm, on the South Island, for around a year.
Kerry joined the Wynnstay Calf & Youngstock Team having previously worked as a calf rearer and farm admin assistant on a large, autumn block calving herd in Somerset. Kerry helped rear around 500 replacement heifers and 2000 beef calves during the block, gaining excellent experience with automatic feeders and all the challenges that rearing large numbers of calves can present.
