Topeka, KS (WIBW) - Tim Iwig grew up milking cows. He saw his parents do it on the farm that has been in his family since 1910. In October 2005, his dream of bottling milk on the family farm came true. In less time than many anticipated, the business became profitable, then the economy tumbled and took Iwig's business along with it.

"We really did make it and then we were hit with conditions that were out of our control," said Tim Iwig.

The Farm Service Agency (FSA) will not renew the guarantee on the Iwigs' loan with the bank because they say the dairy farm is not profitable. Even if they come up with the money to give the bank by the October 14th deadline, there is still no promise that the FSA will then back them. That is why they are asking Kansans for help. The Iwig family is hoping people will come forward and invest in the company. If you are interested you can call the dairy farm at (785) 379-9514.
