Good morning!

The grazing season of 2023 has begun in earnest! 

Happy Jersey Cows on lush spring grass give delicious raw milk!

Here is a quick 25-second video that Wesley shot a few days ago. The cows are so happy to be out "harvesting" their own grass again.

One of our dairy farmer friends, Kinley Coulter, says it this way:

"Watching the cows tearing around the pastures in undisguised, unabashed, undiluted joy... just like a classroom of children let out to recess on a beautiful spring day... is one of the many blessings of spring on the farm!"

Amen to that, Kinley. :)

Here's to another spring season of delicious, golden milk again!

Your Farmer,

The problem with industrial organic chickens is that very few of these birds ever go outside... let alone eat a meaningful amount of grass. If they did go out regularly, that mass of birds would turn a small grass strip into a bare dirt mess in a matter of days.
