Editorial Comment

I was never impressed with the saturated fat-cholesterol theory of causation for heart disease. It did not make sense to me that diet constituents that were present in our diet for over 10,000 years would all of a sudden cause fatal disease in humans.

Please take control of your heart health by reading each of these. I have listed them according to priority based on customers questions regarding my statement that "our full fat milk and full fat cheese and cultured products are the best possible dairy products for your health!" To quote Stephanie Alexandre of Eco-Dairy in California - "Fat is where its at!"

About Windsor Dairy

Windsor Dairy is owned and operated by Drs. Meg Cattell & Arden Nelson, board certified bovine veterinarians. Windsor Dairy employs weekly bacteria testing to insure that your milk is free of bacterial pathogens.

Milk Shares:

In May of 2005 the Colorado state legislature recognized that people should have the freedom to consume raw milk. It is now legal to drink fresh milk from a cow that you own.

This means you can buy a share of a cow in our herd and board it at our farm. In exchange you have access to the most delicious and nutritious milk we know of. Please review our FAQs to find information on how to get started.

You may visit your cow during our pick up hours, and we encourage you to do so. We perform a service for you by feeding, caring for, and milking your cow, and you benefit by being able to utilize the milk.
