    ok, while the rest of you are using powdered milk product, I will be eating fresh, organic cheese, butter, yogurt, kefir, cottage cheese (actually I wont, but my family will be)over the last year or two I bought a cream separator, a pasturizer, and a butter churn. Now we are making mozzarela, butter, yogurt etc. I have to rig up a dorm fridge to age the hard cheeses.

    I may share with any of you that can shoot in a SHTF scenario. But, you have to pull night firewatch, as payment.

    right now, I only have just over 80 acres. there is 2 wells. 1 well we have in use now. and 1 well needs a method to draw the water from 90 feet. such as an electric, or solar, or windmill pump.

    if I can sell this place someday, I will buy more land out east in the state or where in the state I can buy more land with some better ground and water for farming.

    At the very least, milk would be one heck of a barter item. People will trade for this.
