Jumping the Moon Dairy - the next chapter

We own 3 togs...i am starting to wonder if they are mini togs. Our friend has owned a tog named sweetie for about 4yrs and her milk tastes just fine.

Does that get separated by breed?

Yes.

The dairy is up and running. Not certified yet but I have power, water, and all systems are a go. The technician came out today and he was amazing...fast, nice, good, and just easy to work with. There is a new DeLaval (that is the brand of my equipment) dealer a few hours from me and he came over for "training" which was great as it allowed him to know what I have and work with a pro and learn all about MY system while doing it. It was actually my idea to invite him to come over today and I am really glad that I did. He and his co-worker did a lot of work while learning and it was "on the house". We bought them lunch and Gatorade. It has been over 100° everyday since last Saturday, I think today's high was around 110° so we started work at 5:00 AM. Gosh it was nice that time of the day but now it is time for bed...past time really.

Now to start the list to get it all certified and first thing on it that list is a ramp and door for the goats to get into the barn.

Awesome

That is fantastic! It's been a long haul but ya got there - CONGRATS!!!!

I know some of what goes into getting a dairy up and going, good for you. It takes so much work and dedication and in today's world of tough milk prices and all, great that you will be able to branch into the cheese and other markets. Congratulations. I have followed your journal and have been very impressed.

This has been a long journey -- CONGRATS!!!

So -- now that it is a reality and you will soon be certified --
how/where/what is your market to sell?

We have all watched your hard, hard work and I'd sure like to think "something" was pretty well designed for an outlet to all the process.
