LITTLE SEED FARM HERD SHARE.
This winter we made some great new farmer friends, James and Eileen of Little Seed Farm outside of Nashville in Lebanon, Tn. (Remember all their amazing animals?) They run a small, natural farm there, punctuated by a brilliant herd of dairy goats from which they will be offering a herd share of raw milk cheese and yogurt this year. And we are thrilled to announce that we will be helping them with this operation! For twenty weeks, starting May 18th, we will be passing out their herd share at the West Nashville Farmer's Market, Saturdays at Richland Park.If you are interested in signing up, please read more about the share here. For what amounts to less than ten dollars a week, you get delicious cheese and yogurt from a responsible and blossoming young farm. Please join us in supporting these wonderful people in their hard work!- Jesse & Hannah.

WINE AND (SHEEP) CHEESE.
Jesse and I went to a dinner party of sorts last night. Our friends Willie and Erin got a "Cheese of the Month" subscription for Christmas, which basically means that a box full of crazy cheeses comes in the mail each month. We were lucky enough to taste the latest delivery, along with some wine and sherry and homemade bread and figs and olives and blood orange truffle oil and all sorts of amazing treats.Besides hanging out with Oliver (the cat), my favorite part of the meal was surely the sheep milk cheese.....which has me curious once again about milking sheep. We have researched this topic before, and sort of forgot about the idea when we saw how expensive the milking breeds were. But man, that cheese was so delicious....- Hannah.
