From New Bulk Tank to Clabbered Delights: An Exciting Update from Prairie's Edge Organic Dairy

Summary

In this podcast update from Prairie's Edge Organic Dairy, Carol announces the arrival of a new bulk tank for their farm, which will streamline their milk processing. The tank is currently being set up, and once it's operational, it will eliminate the need for their current coolers and save time during milking.

Carol also discusses their current herd, upcoming calvings, and their plans to potentially sell crossbred calves. She mentions that spring has arrived, and they are preparing to move the cows to pasture.

Carol shares her recent experiments with Clabbered milk and offers to provide samples and guidance on making Clabbered cottage cheese and Clabbered Sour Cream.

She highlights the importance of the new bulk tank in managing milk sales and expresses her willingness to offer samples of cheese curds and cheddar cheese. Carol concludes by mentioning upcoming developments and wishes everyone a happy dairy farming experience.

The Prairies Edge Farm podcast provides updates on their organic dairy farm west of Willmar, Minnesota.

Their products include certified organic whole raw milk, farm fresh cream and skim milk, grassfed, grass finished highland beef, and soy-free pork.

UPDATE: The new bulk milk tank is now in full operation.
