Of course it will cost me $10/gallon. lol Florida is not exactly a haven for small dairy farms so I feel lucky to have found Keely Farms Dairy in New Smyrna, Florida about one hour north of me. The price includes delivery to my home and I can even specify the temperature of the milk. So yes it is pricey but I think worth the cost. The 6 gallons I received yesterday was milked that same morning. Can't get much fresher than that. Every cheese I have made with fresh raw milk has turned out great as opposed to the very inconsistent store bought milks.
They also produce ghee, yogurts and other dairy products as-well-as raising Berkshire pigs. Next weeks order will include another 6 gallons and about 5 lbs. of center cut pork belly for my next maple bourbon bacon make.
Blessed, indeed! $10/gallon for raw milk doesn't sound too bad. That's not much more than I pay for creamline milk. One day I hope to find someone willing to sell me raw milk. I might have to go to WA for that though.
Blessed indeed... Great find, congrats... That Berkshire pork sounds like a bonus :)
Thanks guys and gals. After reading up on raw milk laws in Canada, I fell sorry for you. Even thou raw milk cannot be sold for human consumption, it can be sold for pet use. And since I have been called a dog more than once, I guess I am legal. lol
It sounds like the Vancouver crowd needs to pool together to make a run to Washington for your milk for sure.
