Thankful is truly an understatement. ❤️

You have no idea how incredible this opportunity with Organic Valley is for our family. After going backwards for months, making the heartbreaking decision to sell our OG herd that we had raised and bottle fed since they were babies, and then going months without any income… it’s been a long road.

But today, seeing that first milk truck pull into our driveway means everything. 🚛🥛

What does this mean? It means we finally have income coming back in again. It means you can be drinking our organic milk from the stores. It means we chose organic, and Organic Valley chose to support small family farms like ours.

We are beyond blessed and so incredibly thankful for this next chapter. Farming runs deep in our blood, and completely walking away from this life was never an answer we were willing to accept.

Here’s to rebuilding, moving forward, and holding onto the farm life we love so much with creating a new herd!🐄

Thankful for the beautiful weather that we have been given last month. 🌾🚜

The farm is getting quieter by the second… but my heart is full thinking about everything it has given us.

Grateful for a dry day, for the drivers who keep things moving, for healthy kids, healthy animals, and a life that’s still so good in so many ways. 🤍

As the weather starts turning to those hotter days, we’re all hoping for balance this year.

Praying the flooding doesn’t get out of hand… but also praying the ground doesn’t dry out too fast. The last thing we want is another drought year.

We work hard to feed and prep our own animals, relying on our own fields to provide. That’s the goal—sustainable, homegrown, and not having to depend on importing feed.

Here’s to a season that works with us, not against us 🤞🏼

Raise them right. Let them get dirty. Let them learn new things. Let them smell the fresh air, feel the rain, and splash in the puddles.

Every muddy boot, every scraped knee, and every curious moment is a learning curve shaping who they’ll become in the future. Farm kids are built strong — not just in their hands, but in their hearts.

Be the parent who lets them explore. Let them climb, dig, run, and discover. Don’t hold them back from the little moments that teach the biggest lessons.

On stormy days like today, let them jump in the puddles. Farm kids are built different.

Most people don’t know what this is — it’s called a milking parlor. 🐄🥛

A milking parlor is where dairy cows are brought twice a day to be milked in a clean, controlled environment. The cows stand on both sides while the farmer works in the center pit below. Milking machines are attached to each cow and gently collect the milk, which then travels through stainless steel pipes to a cooling tank to keep it fresh.

Our parlor allows us to milk 9 cows on each side at one time, helping the process stay efficient while keeping the cows calm and comfortable. This system is an important part of modern dairy farming and helps ensure milk is collected safely and hygienically before it ever leaves the farm.

Many people don’t realize that cows actually look forward to being milked. 🐄🥛

Dairy cows live on a consistent daily schedule and quickly learn when it’s time to head to the milking parlor. When their udders fill with milk, it creates pressure, so milking provides relief and keeps them comfortable.

Milking is a gentle and harmless process. The machines are designed to safely and carefully collect the milk while the cows stand calmly and eat or relax. Keeping cows on a routine and milking them regularly is an important part of maintaining their health, comfort, and overall well-being.

Farm life doesn’t stop for weather — and neither do the people living it. That’s why brands like XtraTuff and Carhartt are staples around here.

From babies in tiny overalls to grandparents still doing morning chores, these brands truly have it all. Waterproof boots for muddy fields, durable jackets for cold mornings, tough pants that hold up through long days — year-round, season after season.

On a farm, clothing isn’t just style — it’s survival. And when something works, families stick with it for generations.

Same Milk. Different Label. 🥛

I’ve had a few people ask about where store-brand milk actually comes from — especially when labels or packaging look different.

There’s a code on each milk jug and you can look up the plant number.

Here’s the thing:
Private label brands (like store brands) are often bottled at the exact same dairy processing plant as name brands. The label might change depending on the store, but the milk plant — and often the milk itself — does not.

Milk is processed regionally. So even if you see a different logo, updated packaging, or a slightly different design, it can still be coming from the same local dairy plant that supplies multiple brands.

In our area, that means it’s coming from the same Washington dairy processor serving Central Washington — just packaged under different store labels.

So yes — the label can change.
But the milk plant (and the source farms) can be the exact same.

Two different labels.
Same exact milk.
Sometimes even the same price or different.

The only thing that changes?
The sticker.

Same plant. Different sticker. 🐄🥛

It doesn’t happen overnight.
It starts with numbers on a statement, a few cents cut from the milk check… and those pennies turn into thousands.
The big supplier says they’re behind on a project, they need to cover bills, they’ll “adjust” payments.
But those “adjustments” come out of the farmer’s pocket — the same pocket that pays for feed, vet bills, fuel, labor, and keeping cows healthy.

You watch your dad or your partner wake up at 4am, milk twice a day, every day, no holidays, no weekends off.
You see them care for calves like their own kids, nurse sick cows, bottle-feed the weak ones, stay up all night waiting on a difficult calving.
And then they’re told: Sorry, it’s business.

You’re not just losing money —
you’re losing a lifetime, a legacy, and the animals you’ve raised from day one.
You sit at the kitchen table staring at numbers that don’t pencil, wondering how you’re supposed to keep going when someone else gets to decide your price, your future.

You start selling cows you never intended to sell.
Your herd gets smaller.
The barn feels emptier.
The farm that was always full of noise becomes quiet… too quiet.

That’s what it looks like.
Not laziness, not mismanagement —
just a hardworking family being crushed by a system that rewards the biggest and bleeds out the small.

Sometimes the hardest decision is the one that gets you out of the hard thing.
In the long run, it becomes the best decision you’ve ever made.
Change is scary—but change can also be a blessing in disguise.
You can do hard things, and so can everyone around you.
You choose the life you want to live.
We choose to make a difference.
We choose to change.
Push yourself. Strive for better.
Life is too short to stay stuck.
