At Springdell during our winter share we are fortunate enough to receive our milk from our friends at Tully Farms Dairy in Dunstable, MA. Check them out at www.highlawnfarm.com. So if it’s lowfat milk, chocolate milk, half and half or another selection, we are fueling our bodies with nutritious local milk all through the winter. Milk is, for me, a product that is very obvious when it is fresh and local, you can really taste the difference!
Milk is wonderful for our bodies. It is one of the best sources of calcium and is filled with vitamin D, which naturally helps our bodies absorb the calcium. Milk is a helper for our strong bones and teeth. Milk helps keep us hydrated while improving our vitamin intake. All in all, keep drinking friends!
Thanks to a single cow, one cow alone can:
In order to produce so much milk we can enjoy, cows eat about 100 pounds of food a day and enjoy up to 50 gallons of water a day too!
Fellow Springdellian Ann B (photo) visited Carlsbad Cravings for this delicious dressing, making great use of your jalapeños. It is versatile and aside from the veggies and herbs, can be made with your kitchen staples! Try it on the veggie-rich Chipotle BBQ Chicken Salad, also on the Carlsbad Cravings website!
Clafoutis (or clafoutis) is a light and delicious custard-type dessert, and works just as easily with plums as it does with peaches. Don’t forget to pick up some sour cream to make this version. Let your stone fruits sing with this simple and delicious dessert!
Perfect for a busy weekend, this bread pudding can be made the night before, so the bread really soaks up the goodness and it makes the morning meal a total cinch to pull off.
