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!
This one from the Kitchn was shared by Fellow Springdellian Mandy C. (with photo credit to Fellow Springdellian Kaitlynne V). This simple and delicious use of kale is great as leftovers, pairs well with Springdell ham steak, or topped with an egg!
Springdell Farm posted this one recently. Sharp cheddar works well with this one!
Fellow Springdellian Dawn DeMeo concocted this recipe as a way to enjoy her Four Star Farms pastry flour. These waffles came out so good, they won a Four Star Farms contest for best recipe! The addition of almond meal/flour takes these over the top!
