This weeks special guests to the market…. Cheese making demo!! There was a great article in Mother Earth News all about making cheese and lactose free dairy products you can make at home. I am really excited to try making some cheese with raw milk and goats milk. The cheese makers had several samples to choose from. Molly and Ginger picked lemon zest cheese to bring home.
Free 1/2 gallons of milk out of the back of a truck! Snowville is a local creamery trying to get the local big name grocery down the street to carry their milk products. My lucky day!
We again brought home asparagus and green beans. But no need to purchase any greens as my garden has gone wild!!
When we got home Ginger found a slug and went searching for one of our bug habitats. Next thing I know she was screaming, “There’s a butterfly in the box!”
And sure enough there was a swallowtail flapping around in the box. We had forgotten about the chrysalis that wintered over in the box. We opened the box and it flew out only to return to my head!
And then to Ginger….
And then to Molly…

[...] common moths in due time if all goes well. I would prefer to be raising beautiful butterflies like Kristen but it wasn’t really up to me. Seth found these little guys over the weekend. One he carried [...]
