I really like Sally’s milk (photo at left is all Sally’s milk), but then I also like Trixie’s, Juliet’s, and Joy’s milk too.\u00a0 What I like most is that each half gallon glass bottle is labeled with the name of the cow that gave the milk.\u00a0 No, wait a minute–that’s not what I like most.\u00a0 Actually, what I really<\/em> like most is how good the milk tastes–fresh and creamy.\u00a0 Of course, it’s so good for me and my family too.\u00a0 It’s totally unprocessed, unheated, unhomogenized, and farm-fresh healthy.<\/p>\n

Bill & Irene Nelson are the owners of the Healthyway Dairy in Santa Fe, Texas, a small Texas licensed Grade A raw milk dairy farm just south of Houston.\u00a0 The farm has been in the family for many years.\u00a0 As is common on most small dairy farms, they know their cows well.\u00a0 They are reluctant to let anyone else milk them because each cow is different and thrives with the individual handling the Nelsons provide.\u00a0 Their cows are mostly Jerseys and grassfed.<\/p>\n

\"Healthy<\/a>Their dairy farm has lots of milk\u00a0right now for several reasons.\u00a0 (No, I don’t think that’s Sally in the photo at left.) The Nelsons recently acquired a few more milk cows from a neighbor who was no longer able to take care of his cows.\u00a0 He\u00a0 was glad that the Nelsons could\u00a0take them because he knew they would\u00a0treat the cows\u00a0well.\u00a0 Also, several cows at Healthy Way Dairy have recently given birth to new calves which has increased the milk supply.\u00a0 With the additional cows and the new mothers back into milk production, there’s plenty of fresh milk available at the farm.<\/p>\n

Update September 20, 2014:<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0 Bill and Irene Nelson are good people who care about their cows and helping others be healthier by drinking their raw milk.\u00a0 Watch a superb documentary about life on their dairy farm here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
