This is a common practice on mass-producing farms to increase their cow’s milk output. Hatchland Farm is a smaller-scale operation, with about 500 cows that are fed homegrown feed consisting of alphalfa haylage, grass haylage, dry hay and corn silage. According to their website, "A comfortable home, healthy food for the cows and proper milking procedures are the first steps in the production of high quality and great tasting milk." Another awesome thing about Hatchland Farm? The milk comes in glass bottles which are so much better for the environment. And, if you live in the area you can bring back the olden days by actually having them deliver fresh milk to your doorstep! See here for the areas they serve in New Hampshire, Northern Massachusetts and Southern Maine. Because the milk is so fresh and their pasteurization process helps to maintain a creamy, rich taste, this milk was the perfect ingredient to use in my Mexican Hot Chocolate. Perfect for a chilly December night!
