We can finally sell raw milk LEGALLY in Montana! And we don't want this reversed and there are a lot of people (with lots of money who want it reversed) so we need to be extra diligent to do our part and make sure our milk is healthy and safe!

Milk testing every six months is one of the requirements to sell raw milk in Montana. I need to get this milk in the vials and shipped out as quickly as possible!

I'll also walk you through my daily goat milking routine and some tips on how to chill milk as quickly as possible even while you're still milking.
