Hello everyone,
Wanted to bring you up to date on our farm. To go along with our beef and pork business we are going to add a small dairy. Our goal is to start milking by the summer 2016. Our dairy cows will be raised just like our beef cows. Grazed on Organic Pastures in the summer and fed Organic Hay in the winter. We are going to sell 100% grass-fed milk that we are going to process and sell ourselves. (not raw milk). Just like we sell our beef and pork by the share, we plan on doing the same with the milk. A share will be one gallon of milk a week for 52 weeks. This will not be an inexpensive venture and to help us get it up and running we are looking for share holders in our area who would have interest in not just purchasing a share, but forward purchasing their share. This would help us remodel the old milk-house, add dairy cows and make additions that are needed for this project.
If this is something you would have interest in, please give me a call at 517-765-2268 and let me know what you think and I can give you more details.
Thanks
Dan
How much would a "share" of milk be?
ReplyDeleteA full one year share of one gallon per week is $400. More information is on the Hiday Farm Blog and/or The Green Gardens web site. Feel free to call me at 517-765-2268 for more information.
