Today’s episode of “What Else Could Possibly Happen?” 😅

A flesh-eating cattle parasite just showed up in Texas for the first time in nearly 60 years.

That’s on top of the smallest beef herd in American history.

And beef prices were already at record highs before this.

Listen, I don’t know exactly what will happen next. But I do know this: when cattle numbers get tight, prices don’t magically go down.

This is one of the reasons I encourage families to buy beef in bulk.

Not because I want people to panic.

Because I want people to have peace of mind.

The families who reserved a beef share from us last December already know what they’re paying. Their price is locked in. Their beef is spoken for. Their freezer will be full by summer.

Whatever happens with cattle markets, border closures, parasites, droughts, or the next headline that pops up, their family’s beef is already taken care of.

I can’t control any of that.

But I can help families put one less thing on their worry list.

We open beef reservations for next year in December. If you’d like first dibs when ordering opens, get on our email list - just DM me your email and I’ll get you added.🩷

People often ask how a nurse ended up back on the family farm.

The short answer?

I started asking questions.

Questions about food.
Questions about health.
Questions about what I was feeding my own family.

Those questions eventually led me home.

Today, everything we raise is food I’ve done the homework on and food I’m proud to feed my own kids.

I’m glad you’re here. ❤️

I never thought much about where my grocery store beef came from until I started raising my own.

Then I learned that “grass-fed” on a label can mean almost anything.

No farm name. No state. No country. Just a sticker that says what you want to hear.

These girls graze fresh Minnesota pasture every single day. I know exactly what they eat, how they live, and what goes into your freezer.

That’s the difference between a label and a farmer.

Mabel died this morning. 💔

She had her baby yesterday. And by the time the sun came up today, she was gone.

I’ve been trying to find the right words, but honestly there aren’t any. So I’m just going to tell you the truth.

When you only milk 8 cows, losing one isn’t a statistic. It’s a hole in the herd. It’s a routine, an income, a plan, a life you showed up for every single day — rain, cold, exhaustion, all of it — because you genuinely cared.

People see the pretty pasture pictures. The fresh milk. The baby calves with their wobbly legs and soft eyes. And I love sharing that with you, because it’s real and it’s beautiful.

But this is also real.

The heartbreak that comes out of nowhere. The financial pressure underneath the grief. The weight of carrying the animals, the families you feed, and the business — all at the same time, with no clocking out.

Today it feels really hard to keep going. I won’t pretend otherwise.

Small farms aren’t a dreamy simple life. They’re a choice to do something hard because it matters. And when you care this deeply, losses like Mabel don’t just roll off your back. They sit with you.

So if you ate something real today — something someone raised with their hands and their whole heart — please don’t take it for granted.

We don’t. 🤍

I officially packed my LAST lunch of the year this morning.

Naturally… I celebrated by doing the gritty alone in my kitchen while my 14-year-old stared at me in absolute horror.

Anyway.

Raw milk families in the summer usually become one of two people:

🥛 Option 1:
Your kids are home all day inhaling milk like tiny bodybuilders and you’re texing me:
“Sarah… can I please add more milk?”

OR

🥛 Option 2:
You’re at the lake, baseball tournaments, on vacation, surviving summer chaos… and suddenly realize you have enough raw milk in your fridge to supply a small coffee shop.

If you’re Option 2… I made you something 👊🏼

I put together a FREE Summer Treats PDF with:
☀️ Orange Dreamsicles
☀️ 3-ingredient Strawberry Banana Popsicles
☀️ Homemade fudgesicles that taste like the ice cream truck but are made with real ingredients

So instead of wondering what to do with all that extra milk, you can turn it into easy summer memories your kids will beg for again and again.

Comment “SUMMER” and I’ll send it your way 🍦

Two sticks of butter. Same product. Look at them.

The pale one on top? Organic. From the grocery store.

Checked all the boxes — certified, labeled, approved.

The golden one on the bottom? That’s ours. Made from the milk our cows are giving this week — because they’re back out on fresh pasture after a long winter of dry hay.

That color isn’t a coincidence.

All winter, our cows eat stored hay — and our milk is bright white. It’s still real, still raw, still nourishing. But it tells a different story than what you’re seeing now.

The moment the cows hit fresh living grass, everything shifts. The milk turns golden. The cream turns golden. The butter turns golden.

Even the egg yolks go from pale yellow to deep orange.

That pigment is beta-carotene — and it’s a direct signal that the fat in this milk is now loaded with what your body actually needs:

🌿 Vitamin A, D, E & K2
🌿 Omega-3 fatty acids
🌿 CLA — linked to immune and metabolic health
🌿 Beta-carotene your body converts to active vitamin A

Here’s the thing: we’re living in a time when our food is nutrient-depleted.

We’re eating calories — plenty of them — yet we’re starving for real nutrition. And our kids?

They’re starving too.

Your child can eat and still be malnourished on the standard food system.

That’s the reality we’re up against.

This is why we fight for food freedom.

This is why raw milk matters.

This is why your kids deserve to know where their food comes from.

Real food looks different. And that difference is everything.

I’m sharing this because health matters.

Look around. We are sicker than ever before.

Kids dealing with things that used to be rare.

Adults dependent on multiple medications before midlife.

Chronic disease isn’t shocking anymore — it’s expected.

And we’re told this is normal.

It’s not.

This episode dives into glyphosate, corporate influence, and the legal protections surrounding chemical companies.

Whether you agree with every point or not, the bigger issue is transparency.

Money talks. Power protects itself. And everyday families are left carrying the long-term consequences.

This isn’t about attacking farmers. Many are operating inside a system they didn’t design — a system that rewards yield, scale, and chemical dependency over soil health and nutrient density.

But we cannot ignore what we can see with our own eyes.

We cannot pretend there’s no connection between depleted soil, chemical-heavy agriculture, ultra-processed food — and the health decline happening all around us.

For those of us trying to farm differently — focusing on regenerative practices, living soil, fewer inputs, stronger local food systems — some days it truly feels like David and Goliath.

But regenerative farming isn’t radical.
It’s restorative.
It’s rebuilding from the soil up.

It’s prioritizing nutrient density over maximum yield.
It’s choosing long-term vitality over short-term profit.

Knowledge is power.
Asking questions is not fear.
Wanting better for our families is not extreme.

We have to do better.

Listen. Learn. Think critically.

Because pretending this isn’t connected doesn’t make it disappear.
