    Do not forget the peace of mind in knowing where your food comes from and what is in it. Their is also that the taste is so much fresher and better than store bought. Their is also the satisfaction that "You did this". Very rewarding. It is not just the cost of raising and producing but so many other bi-products that you get from it as well.

    My hat is off to you guys. Owning a cow is sort of like owning a boat. It's one of those things many people might romanticize, but in reality it's probably better to just be good friends with someone who has one and just regularly show up with gifts. 😄 That's why farmer's markets are so great. 👍

Ive been looking into homestead for a few years now, finally got my husband on board last year. So we're planning on making our move from the city. I grew up in the rural south and deeply feel the need to return. I found your channel from search results on RUclips about building a shed home, then was suggested this Cow Milk Video. I'm very interested in eventually having my own cow and becoming more food sufficient. Til then I'm looking for a good Dairy Farm near me. Your videos are very helpful

    I feel exactly the same way about cheese. I have not even mastered mozzarella yet. I'll try Kate's recipe though. I know I've seen it at some point. I can make ricotta all day long though! Oh and $9000 worth of raw milk depends on what raw milk sells for in your area. Here, you'd only have to drink/use about 2.5 gallons a day. Which is a lot, but maybe not for a bigger family.

    • @BetterTogetherLife

    I think it is cheaper. You spent 9000 dollars, but in my area of Texas to get raw milk, that's A2, the going rate is between 10-15 dollars a gallon, depending on who you buy from. So good job, I think even with the fencing and vet bills that may not happen every year, it's definitely worth it!!

    • @BetterTogetherLife
      @BetterTogetherLife  3 месяца назад

      Oh yikes, yay for A2 it would be pretty expensive. That makes sense.
      Goldie isn’t a2a2, she is something different with a higher cream count. Her milk is almost a quart of cream per gallon!! 😁😁😁

      Gosh! I’m so sorry! 😂 I hadn’t quite thought of that demographic 😂.
      I do think raw milk is easier to digest when someone is specifically lactose intolerant. The enzyme lactase is present in raw milk and it naturally aids in digesting lactose. But start small with raw milk. A cup a day and see how your body does. We are all unique.
