With the recent increase in butter prices at the grocery store (Approximately $2.50 per lb!) we feel we need to help educate people how to make their own butter. One gallon of our raw Jersey milk($4.24 on the farm) yields around one quart of rich cream. Each quart of cream yeilds about one cup of butter, that’s over a dollars worth of butter! The benefits of making your own butter go beyond the financial aspects, but even more important is yours and your family’s health.
Come to the preparedness fair Saturday, September 13th, from 10am-4pm where Doris Mortimer is teaching how to make butter from our fresh raw cream! She will be teaching a few different methods, and will be teaching a “class” starting new every hour.
There will be plenty of things to see and learn at this fair. Doris will also be teaching about keifer and some of the benefits of cooking with raw milk products.
