Thank you for this Cheryl ! We missed the “open house”, but plan to visit and shop there. Also nice to learn what the milk cows are eating! (As in “What Your Food Ate”, previous article).

Yes! Thanks, Sarah. It was fun, and a refreshing change of pace to gain a local direct agriculture business.

As one who grew up milking cows by hand, I appreciate all of the work involved in in the process. Thanks for sharing this delightful story!

Thank you, John. Glad you enjoyed it, and could summon those miking cow memories. We only had a few cows for several years. My older brother was kicked while milking, and the result was a broken collarbone.

Love the cows’ names: Sundae, Dani, Betty, Sydney, Apple, Victoria, Mischief, and Delightful. Also your cleverly placed cow-milk puns. Looks like a good place to stop. Thanks for the interesting and well written story.

I love it! I live in Boone and will be making a trip, for sure. My grandparents had a big barn (not red) with dairy cows and draft horses!
