In 2009, Tennessee passed the law allowing for raw milk herd share agreement. Since that time, I’ve served folks with safe, fresh, and nutritious, raw milk while expanding our farm’s reach throughout East Tennessee. I offer limited opportunities to consult with dairies converting to the raw milk herd share model, drawing from my own experience doing this the past ten years. Dairies must not be within my local area.
Have you been working endless hours trying to honor your family farm but struggling to make ends meet?
Is your future in dairy uncertain or worse, unfair?
Is $15.50 a hundred weight not enough to make a living wage?

Want to learn how to turn that $15.50 a hundred weight into $133.00 a hundred weight?
How can you make more money on smaller herds, reducing your overhead and labor while increasing your income and quality of life?
Tired of being exploited?…
Do you want to be in complete control of your farm?
Contact us today and we will help you turn that $15.50 into $133.00 or help you start your own herd share dairy.
