We've been doing this for a few years now. Any community can do it - no community meetings or physical store necessary. Solitary is not the best way to save.Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15115911157724974159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356764657826254359.post-68946742466504599642009-06-20T11:49:04.526-07:002009-06-20T11:49:04.526-07:00I just found your blog last week and it's my n...I just found your blog last week and it's my new favorite. I'm trying to move my family farther along the whole foods path. Currently, we're on the Feingold Diet and staying away from as many fake foods as we can.<br /><br />I was disappointed to find out that raw milk is illegal to sell in Virginia. There are two dairy farms nearby who will allow you to buy a share of a cow ($100 plus monthly upkeep expenses) and receive a gallon of milk per week for each share. It worked out to nearly $10 a gallon for raw milk. It's not in my budget and I'm so jealous of your great milk prices.<br /><br />Your blog has been a godsend. Thank you!<br />Loribookloverlorinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356764657826254359.post-49156163757092705062009-06-20T11:42:31.443-07:002009-06-20T11:42:31.443-07:00That's so great that you're able to feed y...That's so great that you're able to feed your family organic food on a budget! Looks like you got some great deals! $2.50 is cheaper than I paid for a gallon of non-organic milk at the grocery store last week!Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04331947120750040704noreply@blogger.com
