I also bought cider and some artisan goat cheese. They had a yogurt beverage that looked mighty tasty too but my tally was already up to $30.
I'll get that next time:D
Wow! You can't get it much fresher than that, eh?
They deliver to NoVa

They do, don't they? I'll just have to give them a call tomorrow and ask about their products and delivery locations (or my home). Thanks. Yum - strawberry milk.Quote:

Isn't that eggnog sinful? Worth every glob of fat!!
If I'm not mistaken, they sell their products at local farmer's markets.
Zen, I love your pictures. They look like happy cows! Do they name their cows? I read somewhere (NYT?) that cows who are named give more milk. You have to try the horseradish cream cheese, if you make a return visit. You're lucky to live out there -- that's beautiful country (hopefully, it won't turn into cookie-cutter mcmansion sub-division hell).
OMG, look at the size of that cow's udder! Is she full or what??
I have heard of a source for raw milk around here, but if there any organic dairies that you can just walk in and buy something, I don't know about it. You're lucky!

Karen - They are a family-own/operated business. We've had great service from them and of course, it goes without saying that the milk is great. In the fall, they had "mocha" flavored whole milk, which my coffee-loving husband enjoyed. We go through a half gallon of chocolate whole milk and one of skim milk a week.
Because during the early-mid 70s my mother "cut" our milk with powdered milk (which she always didn't mix in well--clumps, gross) to save money, I really appreciate good milk. Not even Nestles quick, which was a "treat" for special times, could made the stuff palatable. Uggh, thinking about it still makes me have that involuntary gag reaction. :p
Gawd, I remember that awful stuff. My mom did the same thing, and it was such a treat to go to my cousin's or my grandma's house and drink the real thing. (Back when I drank milk.)Quote:

(And it was uphill. Both ways. In the snow. ;))
She does look ready, doesn't she?Quote:

Dinner a couple of nights ago: freshly-baked pumpkin bread and eggnog. Yee-haw!
Oh, Owlice. There are few places that have nog like this. It's almost a custard. Where did you buy yours?
In NC, Mapleview farms has fabulous eggnog. Just sayin'.
Zen, are you sitting down? No? Please do.. thank you. I bought mine at Giant! Not the same, I know, but I could get there in the snow!
Custard is a good description.
If you want some, get it soon because they won't be making it much longer. Miss it and you'll have to wait an entire year to try it.
