Update at Diamond S Ranch

Nothing like getting to hold your new grandson.  Such a happy little fellow that only fusses if he's hungry or needing a change of clothes.   Great Sunday, with the rain and snow stopping our projects outside we decided to take a drive to visit with sweet, smiley Jack.   Bruce, Jenny too. Great drive & cuddle time.  You know there is nothing like little ones - grand children and animals to ground us and show us how special life is. 

​Just a little bit about Diamond S cheese making - our raw milk is never heated high enough to pasteurize ( at least 146* & held for at least 30 min) the milk.  We make raw milk cheese of several kinds, including cheddar, parmesan, jack, kefir, creme fraiche, cottage etc.  All the good probiotic activity is still there.  We age some we bring some to you fresh.  But the process takes lots of milk and time.  So be patient while we replenish our supply.   And stay tuned for your favorites to be back.

Relaxing in the sun.  See Alex in the corner behind the hens.  They are best buddies.

Meet the three calves Miss Belle is raising at present.  Yes as some of you heard while picking up your milk, or reading last weeks blog post about Miss Belle calving, all our extra milk will be going to the extra calves we've gotten with more twins, toward the end our our calving season.  So until we lose a calf and can graft one of these little sweet ones, onto the cow loosing one we will be sharing all our extra milk.  This too is a blessing.  Sometimes it's just hard to see all our blessings right away!! 

No worries for our regular orders-MILK, CREAM, KEFIR and FETA will be filled and deliverd as usual.  We will try and keep Blue Cheese dressing available and pints of Marinated Feta plus either Sourdough Sandwich bread or the Artisan Rounds of Sourdough, so place your orders and pick them up at Bee Healthy and see all the new items Janet is adding to her store and shop for all your fruits and vegies Thursdays with Lloyd Craft Farm.  Truly a one stop shopping Thursday at Bee Healthy.  Please comment here or let me know what products are your favorite and we will do our best to be back with your favorites.  Thank you so much for all your support.
