We are so impressed with the desire for real 100% grass fed milk lately. Our orders are up and we are very excited to be able to fulfill these and more. We have learned from Jimmy, http://www.regengraze.com/, how to have abundant fall forage as you can see from the picture of the cows in the peas. While I am not nearly as good at this as Jimmy I am pleased with the results this year. I will explain what we did with peas as it has been amazing how they turned out and how much the cows like to eat it. In fall, winter and spring we use about 100 acres of grass but in summer grass grows crazy, so we only need half that acreage. Therefore, we set aside half of the ranch for winter growth. The last time I rotated the cows through this area that is being set aside for the winter I spun out some good old native iron clay peas, with the tractor and as you can see they went wild. So, now, when our grass is declining, instead of having just grass that is low in protein for the cows as previous years we have all these high protein peas in with the grass. It is quite an awesome thing and I did not till my soil and lose organic matter at all to get this result. The cows are nuts about it and production is high and cream line is huge in the milk along with a LOT of color. THIS my friends is REAL 100% grass fed milk, high in CLA’s to reduce your chances of cancer and help you stay trim, go here for details http://www.eatwild.com/cla.html. Meanwhile we heal the land and reduce CO/2 out of the atmosphere, oh yea it is ALL a very good thing. Drink more milk will you, forget the cheese, ha ha.
We are not burger king and you cannot have it your way. We are still a small family farm and the family part is still the most important thing to us. For this reason and for our sanity and the sanity of our farm help here we ask you to place your order on time and respect our boundaries and we thank you so very much for your cooperation in this.
