Yesterday, the kids and I finally went to the raw dairy (Swan Brothers) in Claremore. It is about 25 minutes from where we live. I don't don't why I was sort of expecting to see some cow milking, but I was thinking it would be more a "field trip" than it turned out to be. That is where the disappointment stops, though. The milk is so creamy and delicious and I feel really good about giving it to my kids...and myself :) I've got a batch of raw yogurt "incubating" now. The yogurt maker has been great. I lied and didn't post pictures of the first batch...because it just looks like yogurt. It is tart and yummy and the kids are gobbling it up. I've been adding half of a mashed banana and/or some pureed mango, along with some local honey...and it is so yummy. I haven't fully researched the benefits of raw milk, but I know it is healthy and am grateful to have access to it. I paid $15.00 for 4 gallons (cheap!) and put a couple of those in the freezer for next week. We'll be returning the the dairy for more fresh milk soon :)
Love,
Kate
