from Sunbright, TN

HI,

My name is

Oliver. Me and my family have a small homestead in Sunbright, TN which

is in County. I have been consuming raw milk off an on since I was a

child. So have my children. I recently remarried and my husband had never tried

it. I found a local source for it and he fell in love. So we now have our own

Guernsey/Jersey cross cow and 2 Nubian goats. The goats are due to freshen in

Apr. We are very happy with our choice to have our own animals for fresh milk.

You can get it here in TN through a cow share legally, but I really love

walking in the house with a pail of really fresh, straight from the cow, warm

milk. My husband used to be on a raw food diet and noticed right away how the

milk helped his digestion. He used to drink no milk at all and now easily

drinks a half gallon a day. Our cow is only producing a gallon a day right now.

We are in the process of picking a bull for her. I am hoping that when she

freshens again the milk will still be as creamy as it is now. I can’t

wait for the goats to kid as I have never had an opportunity to try fresh goat

milk. This will be their first freshening so I am hoping there will be enough

milk for them to share with us and the kids too. We also have an organically

grown garden, and poultry.

I look

forward to learning from everyone and getting to know other list members.

Oliver
