In the “mooo-ed” for summer fun? Cool off at Nash Farm’s Dairy Day on Saturday, June 5 from 10 a.m. to Noon. Learn about 19th century dairy processes, including cheese making, butter churning, hand-cranked ice cream, early refrigeration methods and more. Nash Farm also will have cooking with dairy demonstrations on their wood-fired stove.
Guests of all ages will enjoy learning through hands-on activities and educational demonstrations by Southwest Dairy Farmers.
All New For 2021: Learn to milk a goat! In addition to drinking it, goat’s milk may be used in making cheese, yogurt, fudge and candy, as well as soaps and lotions. Goat’s milk soaps and lotions will also be available for purchase at this event.
Southwest Dairy Farmers will be onsite with its mobile dairy classroom, which features a live cow. Guests will watch milking demonstrations, learn about the importance of dairy and hear the process of how milk travels from the farm to the carton in the refrigerator.
