We've been getting their milk fresh from the bulk tank for several weeks now. Following my own advice, we get it within 24 hours of milking and drink it within a week, making sure to keep it cold the whole time. My kids are loving it, and I am reminded of my childhood each time I drink it (and especially when I drop that rich cream in my coffee). It is interesting to note, however, that, similar to avoiding feeding honey to babies, the dairy owner buys pasteurized milk for his own 3-month old.

But my children no longer have excema and my niece who has asthma when she drinks store milk sleeps soundly with raw milk in her belly. We go through 30 gallons every 6 weeks. I will never go back to dead milk. Legal or not. I know raw milk is no panacea.

While at the beach I noticed that a gallon of regular old non-organic, not-raw milk was NEARLY FIVE DOLLARS. Since the guys in this house go through THREE gallons a day (do the math), I think we're sticking with the regular stuff. YIPES! What will we do when they're teens???
