Raw Milk

Last week I visited a dairy farm in Decatur, Texas where I made my first purchase of raw milk. This raw milk that I bought came from Jersey cows that are grass fed, antibiotic and hormone free.Since I live in Texas raw milk is not sold in retail stores but on dairy farms that have passed testing and inspection standards before it's sold as certified raw milk. I was totally amazed of how rich and creamy it tasted. Nothing like the conventional milk sold in stores. Jersey, Devon, and Guernsey cows have a high level of butterfat which makes raw milk tastes even creamier. So if you are like me look for raw milk that comes from these babies.


I believe raw milk can heal you from illnesses and strengthen your health. My husband grew up on Jersey grass fed cows and could not stand the taste of raw milk. When he was young he became sick with strep throat and later on developed rheumatic fever. He became bed-ridden, weak, could not walk, and the sight of food made him sick. He had a schoolmate who came down with the same illness and she died. My husband's mother knew that if he did not eat he would die too. So she fed him only raw milk a few sips at a time. He said it was very hard to swallow at times but it was his only hope. After 6 weeks he gained strength and showed signs of improvements. Raw milk is full of living enzymes, vitamins, protein, calcium, minerals and fat globules. It is like the perfect food. Healthy cows are grass fed, farmed on land through Organic methods, and in a safe toxic free environment. Milk that have been processed loses all healthful benefits. Pasteurization destroy the nutrients and proteins and enzymes are denatured. Through homogenization milk fat globules are destroyed by forcing milk through tubes under pressure. This reduce their size and the membranes are lost causing the fat to absorb proteins and creating oxidation.

If raw milk sounds good to you give it a try. For more information you can visit www.realmilk.com and www.raw-milk-facts.com . Dairy farmers need our support to encourage them to feel good about what they believe in to deliver good and wholesome food to us. Take care of yourself and have a healthy day!

Local Organic Farming

It is always a good feeling when we support a worthy good cause. When that cause is supported by a larger community the greater in chance it will flourish. That's why it's very important to support our local Organic farmers. When we purchase meats or produce at an Organic farm stand we are supporting that local farmer. This farmer took careful measures to ensure us that we are getting the best what nature intended us to have.

Meats from animals are grass fed, Organic feed, no antibiotics, no hormones, and no modified genes. Fruits and vegetables are grown using the same care without the use of dangerous synthetic pesticides. Animals are free-range and are more healthier than locked up caged animals. These animals are getting a humane and healthy attention from farmers who cares.

Organic farmers are healthy farmers. They are not exposed to the chemicals from dangerous pesticides and fertilizers. They use manure to fertilize the soil that comes from Organic fed cows which is Eco Friendly for the environment. Ground water and soil is preserved and not destroyed from this treatment. Farmers also rotate their crops. This method helps prevent diseases, reduce pests, control weeds, and prevents soil depletion.

Whenever you buy from a local farm stand you are supporting a worthy cause. Our local farmers need the encouragement from people who believe in them to provide us with food that is healthy and organically raised. I choose to support local Organic farming. What about you?

Wishing you well,
