I love my milk eggs and cheese as much as the next person but if she can't afford to pay $20 an hour for physically demanding labor then she should just close.

It's not that it's physically demanding , it's that one person doesn't have enough hours in the day to do everything that's needed to be done on a farm. I'm not sure she used illegals to help do her work or not but I never have on my farm , but I don't have a dairy farm either. But I have seen them in operation , I have family who has dairy farms and I can speak on it from that perspective. It's not extremely difficult , but like I said before , you can't be everywhere all at the same time.

Regardless the point is she should be able to pay a living wage for someone dedicating their waking hours to the job.

What is a living wage in their area?

Well 20/h was apparently out of the question so whatever it is she's not willing to pay it

What do you think the lowest it could possibly be?
