They take pride in their attention to detail, ensuring the cows are healthy, well-fed, and productive.
Goldenflo Holsteins is also known for their top-tier genetics, breeding award-winning cows and heifers.

Agriculture will always be a vital part of PEI and Canada, offering great people and great places the chance to play a role in feeding Canadians. For Gordon and his family, it’s all about working with exceptional cows, producing high-quality milk, and enjoying time with loved ones.
