Off to Washington

As I write this, I am waiting for a car to take me to the airport, where I will be flying to Washington state to see family and celebrate the holidays with loved ones. While I’m there, I’ll also be hunting down some raw milk, which seems like – from my research so far – shouldn’t be too much of a problem. Looks like you can actually buy it in the store, wow!

I’m also hoping to visit the Dungeness Valley Creamery, which is the source of a lot of the raw milk available in the area. I also came across a coffee house that serves their raw milk, too! How civilized.

I’ll also leave you with this trailer for the documentary Farmageddon.

Farm raids suck, to put it bluntly. What a horrible thing for a farmer and his family to go through. A couple of farms were recently raided – the Morningland Dairy and Estrella Family Creamery. More info about their situation can be found here.

If you’d like to donate, you can go to Cheeseslave’s post on the same topic. The donation widget makes it very easy to support the farms to help play for legal fees and such.

See you when I get back (or perhaps even before)!
