Utah Mamas, Raw milk in American Fork!  

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
I just saw this listing posted on KSL. Looks promising. I emailed to find out more about it. I don't know if the dairy is in AF or if they will be bringing it up from Woolsey's Dairy in Payson. Either way !

Also on KSL, I found a local mama here in Lehi who sells eggs from her pastured chickens. Sah-weet! I haven't gotten any yet, but I think I'm going to go tomorrow!

Is the world finally coming around or what? :

Have you heard anything back about this milk? It would be wonderful if it's in AF. $4.50/gal is a great price. I've been getting mine from Woolsey's and it's now $7/gal plus I have to drive to Payson every few weeks for the co-op. I guess I'd better call them & get on their list.

Thanks for the head's up:.

I sent an email this morning and just heard back. They are going to be selling the milk out of a retail location in Pleasant Grove. If you want to get on the list just reply to the ad and tell them how many gallons of milk you need a week.:

Yeah... I got the same email back. They never said anything about what kind of cows it's coming from. The price seems really low, which has me a bit worried about the quality (organic?) of the milk. We'll see. Seems like it should be up an running within a few weeks, though!

I just called and talked to them and this is what I was told:

The cows are in Mount Pleasant. The owners of the cows are the children of the people in P.G. who will be selling the milk. The milk will be brought up here if there is a high enough demand. I was told I am #6 on the list and they do not think there will be a problem with demand.

The are Brown Swiss cows. Anyone know anything about this breed? Is this good?

They have been screened by the state and are in the process of building the barn to state specifics.

They hope to start selling milk in about a month.

I asked if the milk was organic and she that the cows are pastured. No antibiotics and no pesticides sprayed on the pasture.

They are just starting out and have 2 pregnant cows so far.

Price will be between 4-5 dollars a gallon.

springbabes: I was just reading your blog and I thought you and your children looked somewhat familiar. Then, I saw your post about homeschool soccer and it clicked. We were there too! I showed my oldest the pictures and he said, "Hey-that's Sophie!" My oldest two were on the same team as your dd. My 4 year old was on your sons team but he refused to play. He just sat on my lap.

Thanks for finding all this out. It sounds very promising. Did they happen to mention if their bottles are glass or plastic? I love the glass bottles from Woolsey's!

I looked up Brown Swiss cows and found out that their milk is good for cheese-making because of its high percentage of protein and fat.

Small world! I do have a vague memory of a little boy not wanting to play. I think I might have even talked to you? You have Sophie curious now--what are your older kids' names? We're disappointed you don't have pictures on your blog.
