Your very own fresh raw milk from your Healthy, Happy, Humanely cared for and pastured cow. They board for you, milk for you, perform all health routines, test your milk and bottle it in your clean glass container. Milking is performed using a closed system with inline filtration (Filtered, NOT Pasteurized), the entire system is pulled apart and sanitized using a closed system after each milking then held there to ensure the milking equipment is kept clean when it’s not in use. Ellsie’s udders are kept well groomed (along with the rest of her) and teats are triple washed just prior to milking. This system along with proper nutrition, the cleanest living conditions, wide open, abundant green pastures and lots love offers you the cleanest and highest quality milk. Happy cows really do make the best milk! Two deliveries to West Knoxville per week, your raw milk must be picked up on a specified day. They are currently milking one Jersey (Ellsie) to purchase shares in. They are also currently adding to their herd. It’s Love in a Jug! Please email or call Suzanne Thompson 865-399-8320 for more information.

* Harriman, TN, 40 miles west of Knoxville. Matt Edwards, 865-285-9954, medwards22@gmail.com I have Jersey Cows that are hand milked and produce some of the best milk you will ever taste. Many people prefer the “old way” of hand milking so that machines are not necessary and you also can build a better relationship with the cow. They are on pasture and hay in the winter and receive only a little grain each day to keep their attention during milking. I do a cow share program. The share price is $50 and then $40 per month for a gallon of milk a week. www.farmingpreacher.blogspot.com
