The Days are Getting Longer

Monday, January 11, 2021
Hello friends,
Believe it or not, the days are getting longer! Any day in January that is above zero is a good day. Sunshine always warms my spirit, even when it’s chilly. The Christmas decorations came down today and I dusted (thankless job) and we put the furniture back where it was. Something comforting about back to normal…..
Milk production is limited right now. The cows are eating mostly hay, and a little grain when we milk them, but the green grass is now dormant and that is what really helps them produce more milk. We have enough fresh milk for everyone if we just spread pick up days through the week. We’ve had some shortages when there were too many needing milk on Saturday. If you can pick up Monday through Thursday, we are more likely to have plenty. Also, it’s always a good idea to call or text before you come to make sure. If we have more milk than orders, we’ll make cheese. Thank you for your patience. Two cows are due on February 1, so it should only be a temporary issue….
