Bernice, as far as I know, John Beers is still our head guy. You can call VDACS in Richmond and get them to send you out a copy of the regs. You may also find them online at the VDACS website, I know the dairy regs. are available there. Had my first 2 kids born Tuesday night during that horrible snow and wind storm. All are doing well. Two Alpine boys though. I hope the next one due 2/14 has girls! Jennifer

I understand the septic tank thing - the previous inspector was going to let me use the house which is less than 200 feet away (and has 3 bathrooms) but he retired and the new on insists there must be one right at the barn. That is why I am not done yet - need to get a septic and bathroom area built.
My guy says that a porta potty will suffice, but is only needed if there are employees!

Well, I stink at getting much of anything done with a baby.  We attachment parent and demand feed, so this gal is going to be in Depends before she's potty trained, and it would just kill my back to wear her all day.  So, my goal for this year is to actually make more cheese (I did lots of chevre & feta, and one farmhouse cheddar)  My family eats tons and one day I'd like to quit buying it!

We have been getting real Greek Parmesean from a monistary up here...so far anything I have made is NOT parmesean Smiley  Perhaps it's not duplicatable in goatsmilk?  Understand what you are saying Billie, we go through alot cheese, and sadly it's not homegrown.  Vicki
