Do you have a creamery close by?

[psych_mom]

Have you ever had fresh, non-homogenized milk? How about ice cream that has been made from it? Not too long ago we had a creamery open up close by and got a pint of the milk yesterday to try and it was so much better, so today we got a coupon for the creamery and went and got a gallon of milk. It has a nice thick cream line on top so it has to shook before we pour any out, but the taste is so worth it. We also bought fresh eggs today as well. 3 dozen for $4.50- cheaper than the price at Kroger.

We do not have one close.

We have to be careful around here because of laws so no creameries but we're hoping our goats will start kidding this coming spring so we'll have fresh goat's milk.

I think there were laws in GA, but they were changed. I do know that people can't sell goats milk here, but they can give it away, lol.

Have you ever been able to try it?

Oh, we also have our own laying hens so we always have fresh, free-ranged chicken eggs. DH is looking at getting a couple ducks once we complete our pond.

Awesome. I told my husband today that when we buy our place we need to get our own chickens.

No.  To be honest, I have never even heard of this, really, until I read your post.

Can't do either here :(. The one guy our food co-op was buying cow's milk from was shut down because of regulations. :(

If you ever have the chance to try fresh milk, you should. It taste so much better than milk that is several days old through the processing plant. When we by our milk now, it is no more than 24 hours old and you can tell such a huge difference.

There's an Icecream place about 30 mins away that has its own cows. They sell milk there too that's from the cows they have.
