Shatto Milk Farm Tour

Memorial Day weekend we made the trip up to the Shatto Milk Farm to tour the facilities. It was about an hour and a half drive for us, so it took most of the day, but well worth the trip! We met up with Gaga and Papa and Aunt Mandy, Uncle Andy, Meredith and Gwendolyn.

We got to see how the cows are milked. When the cows came into the barn to be milked, one of them pooped everywhere (later when I asked Audrey what her favorite part of the day was, she said "the poop!"). Then we saw the baby calves and had the chance to milk a cow with our hands. Being the germaphobes that we are, Audrey and I declined the offer. Then we got to see how they bottled the milk and then ended the day with a milk and cheese tasting. Audrey refused to try any of the flavored milk, she just wanted regular milk. She's a milk purist.
