Manage episode 377968073 series 3249145
For dairy cow owners who find themselves overwhelmed with an abundance of milk or an abundance of friends and neighbors asking for milk, a herdshare could be a great option for you! Additionally, if you live in a state where it is illegal to sell raw milk, starting a herdshare is a wonderful way to provide milk to your community without legal issues. Whether you are looking to join a herdshare in your area or start one from your own homestead, this episode is a great starting place to get your questions answered. Michelle and Adam have been running their herdshare for a couple of years now, and they are generously sharing their insight into this process from start to finish!
In this episode, we cover:
How the Barringers got started with dairy cows and eventually started their herdshare
Various ways the children get involved in the family herdshare endeavor
Walking through the setup and routine of a small home dairy
The many factors to consider when deciding how to feed your dairy cow
