Hi

Actually raw milk sales in Nebraska ARE legal. Check our www.realmilk.com and click on the "what's happening link" on the left side! You just can't advertise.

New Member intro, Afrank of Nebraska

Hello all. My name is Afrank and I remarried and relocated from Alabama to Nebraska three years ago this December. My husband, Sam, is from here in Cedar Rapids. He returned home to help care for his Dad and I came with him. Unfortunately, he passed away shortly after we got back. We bought the old homeplace and we are making it the way it used to be. They owned a herd of about 49 cows, and this is where their milk, butter and cheese came from. This is not new to either of us. We are both in our 60s and things are slower, but we are bent on doing this the way we choose to. In Alabama, I had a jersey cow that I milked and 25 Nubian goats. I just love the milk and what you can do with it. I made cheese and sold most of it. I had to just say I was out temporarily to eat it!! It was the same way with the butter, the milk and the buttermilk I made. The goats gave me lots of milk and more cheese. I cannot imagine it being any other way, as I do not like store bought milk. At present, I have no other choice. It is not legal to sell raw milk here in Nebraska. We have goats now, and the milk will come with kidding in the spring. We are looking for a good milk cow. That will come. The barn needs to be renovated here. There is a lot of work to do. A new adventure late in life, and the best one by far.I am very glad to be a part of this group and I hope to learn from all of you. You are never too old to learn new things. You must keep an open mind and listen.
