I read this and was like wow... really? You know I don't have a problem with paying $6 per gallon if the farmer that is raising the cattle could get 4 out of the 6 dollars.

Right now dairy owners are getting about $21.00 for a hundred pounds of milk. That's before paying to have it hauled to the creamery. That's about $1.75 a gallon. Next month he may only get $18 and the milk has been gone from your dairy around 45 days before you even know what you will be paid.

I am already paying that much for milk and happy to do it. There is a dairy in our area that pasteurizes and bottles their own milk. It is always fresher tasting, it comes in glass jugs and it's GOOD milk.

Nice.. I wish I had a local dairy to purchase straight from because I would do that as well.

MO you're probably getting real WHOLE milk. They haven't removed most of the butterfat and watered it down like the big companies do. I'd pay double for that too.
