It's most interesting --- and valuable to hear that country living is so enjoyable. We've actually thought of raising our own (and we're self-employed, although moving out to the country may not be entirely workable for us). As pretty much a city person (and a website designer), I'm not sure I'm the right one to be raising cows. It does sound idyllic, though (which may just be an illustration of my naivete in that regard!). But did you find that goat milk tastes pretty much like cow milk?

I did not sell it, just drank it, made cheese and whey, ice cream, yogurt and kefir. Maybe this is good and it will force many more devoted natural healthy food consumers to leave their jobs after they save enough money to by a little country place and grow their own and milk their own goat, cows or sheep. The planet needs this and it will help reduce the carbon factor. We did this in 1976 and it worked and we love the life style. We are self employed now and have a great life style even though we live below the poverty level. No mortgage and no outstanding credit, Credit is bad and you all know this so change you ways and do your own raw milk thing. Have faith, you can do it. ed I enjoyed my own raw goats milk for 15 years. I did not sell it, just drank it, made cheese and whey, ice cream, yogurt and kefir.
