Three of those generations live within shouting distance of each other now. Some folks might find that arrangement too close for comfort, but for the Mikitas, close is comfort. The family has always farmed in an organic spirit. \"My grandparents were not seduced by all the hype of chemicals and 'bigger is better' that came along in the 50s,\" says Scott. \"Their operation was working fine without it, and that still makes sense today.\"","photos":[{"photo":"fileadmin\/img\/wyf\/rm\/Mikita1.jpg","caption":"Robin with the boys"},{"photo":"fileadmin\/img\/wyf\/rm\/Mikita2.jpg","caption":"Scott and the boys"},{"photo":"fileadmin\/img\/wyf\/rm\/Mikita3.jpg","caption":"Cows on pasture"},{"photo":"fileadmin\/img\/wyf\/rm\/Mikita4.jpg","caption":"Mikita family farm"},{"photo":"fileadmin\/img\/wyf\/rm\/Mikita5.jpg","caption":"Mikita family farm"}]},"pools":["Dairy"]}]}
