Happy Cows!

I'm so happy Parker has such a sweet spot- after all our great friends the Bordessa's have an organic dairy in Northern CA and one of Parker's first trips was to their dairy so it comes as no surprise. Now that Parker is getting a little older we are having fun getting out and exploring some of the fun things to do around here. Back in the fall, a local dairy (where we get Parker's milk) hosted an anniversary party/customer appreciation weekend. It was so much fun to see the cows up close, go on a tractor tour of their property and learn all about the farm and how different their operation is compared to commercial dairies! The Dairy is called Happy Cow and they explained that the reason they have named it this is because they plan their grazing fields so there is always something fresh and green in season for the cows to munch. Apparently this is a relatively new "method" of farming and helps create happier cows and happier cows give more milk- who knew??

Parker had a blast and we took home yummy milk, homemade ice cream, butter and some other local items from their store. I can't wait to take the Bordessa's for a visit next time they are out our way- I know they would love a visit to the Happy Cow Dairy!

Can't I get any closer mommy?

Hello there Happy Cow!
