I am a young Wisconsin, born and raised, I have never seen a product like milk. My wife and son both drink skim milk, but the lowest ever increase by 2%. I felt, as many do, that skim just the blue water, even if he was healthy. But recently something happened that changed my mind. That was something the Blue Marble Dairy.
A dairy with Determination
Nick Kirch took over the company from his parents and in 1995 fulfilled a dream by his own bottling plant andWill Blue Marble Dairy. When you meet Nick, you'll understand why. You can see the relationship he has with his land and animals, a rare commodity in those days. Explain why he feels it has never built a milking parlor on his barn, milking his cows feels the barn is less stressful and allows it to be more hands with the animals. He sees one of his pigs, Wilbur, following him everywhere and find out that Wilbur figured out how to climb the fence like a ladder from his pen.To have more than the fence, Nick just decided Wilbur roam the farm. When you look over the fields, we can say that proud of what Nick has done with it, you can see in their eyes.
I asked Nick about the philosophy behind Blue Marble. "I started Blue Marble to the farmer and the consumer to get back together," said Nick. "I think we've lost over the years. We want to know one another. We are all together on the planet, and we need to get on the ground andmake it a better place. "
First-class
Nick has also decided to build his own dairy on his farm because of bovine growth hormone (BGH). "Some of the largest dairy processors told me that people do not have BGH in fact, they just want cheap food. What struck me the wrong way. I did not think it was true. I also think that the Supreme Court is difficult for the cows, and reduced their productive lives. I think people have the right to decide what they do and do not eat, "said Nick. His concern for theThe animals also means that Blue Marble cows are fed with grass for grazing rotation. This means that the 65 cows are moved to the farm in a different field almost every day to eat in ever new development. The end result is that the milk has always been recognized for exceptionally high standards. In fact, it produces less than 10% of the milk in the United States conforms to quality standards is the Blue Marble.
Old-fashioned taste and packaging
Blue Marble is one of the fewmicrodairies that produce liquid milk products. Most of the micro-dairies producing cheese and a good number of these dairy goats alone. Blue Marble does not use additives and produces the line cream milk, pasteurized milk, with long, low-temperature method, but it is not homogenized. This allows for the molecules of fat, milk and cream with a higher content of fat and stay cool, sweet, straight-from-the-holding, cooling taste.
Blue Marble is available only in glass bottles.Nick explains. "The reason why I went to glass bottles, because I truly believe, that the glass is better, keeps things cooler and is non-returnable glass bottles are more expensive (and a big pain for me), but it is. what I believe. "
In addition to the production and bottling of high quality products, the other major obstacle to microdairy how would the farm to customers outside the front door. Once again Nick decided the best way was to do it themselves.
Provide the best
BlueMarble Express, Artisan food already delivered in 2005 has launched. Nick explains what is available. "You can all our Blue Marble products, as well as Sugar River Dairy Yogurt, Local Farm Market is a choice of meat, honey or Brad B, and we'll deliver to your door."

Expansion of Convenience
Nick Kirch is not a standing still. He talked about other projects in the pipeline. "We are looking to expand in working with Natural Farms in Madison for our range of products. People are looking for products that lead us to ask not or can not afford to stock. We already have a relationship with them on some of the Our products are difficult to obtain. So, we talked aboutThe creation of something similar to a system where consumers could our two companies, the products delivered. We also talk about the establishment of a pick-up site in Madison for people who want a bit 'of money, maybe 10% to 20% savings with savings in shipping costs will be. "
Once the milkman was a fixture in the American landscape, a symbol at a time, until the service was top priority and we knew the person that the milk out of his name. He knew that whatwas always as fresh as possible. Nick Kirch determined to live up to the standards and much more from around the cow in the field for monitoring your front door.
