St Fairsted Farm has graciously invited Hammond Farm (that's us) to have a cheese tasting at their farm.
They will be fresh fruit and herbal jellies there as well. Cheese will be there for tasting and selling.

Recipe
Texas is hot this time of year. Replenishing what our body looses in the heat is essential to good health.
Here is a recipe that you may find interesting and is all natural.
Whey from cheese making (can be found from your favorite cheese maker) is all natural and can help in replenishing vitamins lost from the extreme heat. Whey is full of protein.
Take a can of frozen lemonade (Minute Maid is really good) and add 3 cans of liquid whey from cheese making. Stir and serve cold.
Whey can be found at your Farmers Market by asking you favorite cheese maker if he has any. Usually cheesemakers have plenty of liquid whey on hand ready to be used for other purposes.
Whey can also be used in your breakfast pancakes and makes some FANTASTIC pancakes. Any type of
breadmaking or cake making try adding a little whey to the batch and see some surprizing results. Yummm!
Until next time.....Julie

Dairy Farm News
The market's were buzzing this week as shoppers gathered their local farm products. It is nice to see the local food movement come to life. Much of our cheese had only been packaged hours before
the market providing a very fresh product for the consumer.
Our cheese has been doing well at the markets and we have been real busy here at the farm producing different flavors and styles of cheese. Our soap stock continues to grow as the staff gets batches ready
to go into the molds and the number of bars increase on the shelves in anticipation of this years holiday season.
On the Dairy Side of the farm we are working towards Grade A status and hope to have that phase completed by Spring. The inspector has already approved our holding pen and that is already installed.
We have our milking barn on premises ready to erect and will begin on that in the coming months.
New shelters for the goats are getting installed as we prepare for Hurricane season and winter.
Some of our goats will be kidding this fall so we will have a new round of babies between October and November and need more shelter to house everyone.
I can hardly wait for the new babies as kidding season is my favorite time of year.
