History
On May 2, 1864, Christian Fredrick Brandhorst purchased the land which is now Hansen's Dairy Farm, shortly after he came to the United States. It produced many different crops and animals until the 1950's, when it began specializing in dairy.

Jay and Jeanne Hansen, who ran the farm since before the 1970's considered retiring and closing the farm in 2000, however their kids refused. After the decision to keep the farm open, the Hansen's considered opening a creamery to make their milk more profitable. Jay and Jeanne's sons decided to run the farm. Blake, the youngest brother, decided to care for the dairy cow herd. Blair chose to manage the cropland and livestock nutrition. Brad would operate the soon to be opened creamery. Brent would deliver the products to area grocery stores and other customers.

The creamery on the farm opened in 2004. The first gallon produced was whole milk, produced February 6, 2004. The creamery became a success for the Hansen family.

In 2014, Hansen's decided to change their logo, as the old logo gad many words and a complicated image. The old logo had a kangaroo, drinking a glass of milk, with a calf poking out of it's pouch, all inside a ring with the Hansen's name and location, with the words farm fresh across the center.
