Milk Run to a Town Near You
Howdy Customers.
If you are interested in unpasteurized,
unhomogenized milk in a glass jar with the cream
floating on the top then please read...this may be
just the answer for you.
We have a person interested in starting a "milk
run". The idea is that each person would take an
occasional trip down here to pick up milk for the
group. The individuals would then pick up at a
designated location or home at a particular time. If
some were able to drive and others willing to
provide gas money or a little of both that would be
great.
Obviously, there are details to work out such as
money transactions and keeping the milk cold and
such. If we work together I am sure we can work
this out.
Please send me a confirmation email (preferred) or
call (I am very hard to catch) and I will forward on
more information. Please note that by doing so you
are giving me permission to share your contact
information.

More about Real Milk
Drink raw milk? Is that safe?
It can't be... otherwise it would be in the stores,
right? Those are common thoughts to
have. I only ask that you make up your own
mind after researching it. Here are a few
quick links on the subject.
Feel free to email with questions
after you have read some things online. We
have been drinking cow and goat milk for 4.5 years
now. What have we noticed? I will share
a few items. I had a persistent
(and very painful) breast
infection while I was nursing my son for the first 5
month. It went away and
never returned after we started drinking raw milk.
I have been lactose intolerant my whole life but I
can drink as much unpasteurized milk as I want!
Matt comments that he needs less sleep and has more
energy than anytime in his life. Those of you
who know Matt are probably already in awe of his
activity levels. I know I still am.
