Tonight we made a family trip to the farm to pick up our milk. We made a hard decision to quit purchasing from this farm due to the rising gas prices. We had to travel 50 minutes (no traffic) one way once a week. In my car, that totaled 2.5 gallons of gas which is now over $10. Add that to the price of milk and you can see that is expensive milk!!! The farm had other things as well such as cheap eggs, a selection of grass-fed meats, other milk products, etc. It was really fun to go at first, but the drive became burdensome and expensive. Thankfully, we found a local drop-off for another farm for milk and these other products just 15 minutes from our house. We begin that next week.
At the farm pictured below, the family would let you go see the animals anytime you wanted. We thought Carter might enjoy this.
Here he goes running over to the animals...
