I don't know if I am as "all in" as your neighbor, but so far we're able to make ends meet. I still struggle with "the grower always being at fault", but it seems like passing the buck is the culture we have now. Thanks for the holiday wishes. Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday's to you and yours! Stan,

I wondered if I had been absent so long I'd lost touch with everyone. I'm sorry to hear of your farm's situation. I always wanted a dairy farm. I've seen a bunch of them go away in the past few years. The price of production has just gotten higher than the price of milk. One of the growers in my complex was in a dairy family too, but they recently sold all the cows. He said his daddy started milking in the 50s, but it just wasn't worth losing the money to keep milking. Many thanks for your holiday wishes, thanks for reading, and thanks for the comment! Gayle,

I was raised on a family dairy farm in Ohio, that is no longer in business. My Grandfather, father,Uncle,cousins and I farmed it for many years. But, because of unforeseen events by earlier generations, the cows have been sold, along with equipment and the farm itself is on the market. I miss the farm and what it meant to my family. But we are moving on and \"adapting in place\". Keep writing please. I hope you and your family have a blessed Holiday. And I look forward to your next post.
