• We open with Betsy Bullard, the owner and operator of Brigeen Farms in Turner, a family dairy farm with some of the happiest Holstein cows around. She also is opening Canty Cow Creamery – a frozen custard shop right on the farm, using their naturally delicious milk. She shares the new custard flavors coming for warmer weather and how she tests the flavors.

She is focused on sours and lighter styles, but that doesn’t mean they are light in flavor Ashlee’s wisdom is recognized nationwide, and we are excited to have her as a regular contributor on the podcast.

In the third segment, he shares his newest cookbook all about Mediterranean cuisine that is being published from Cider Mill Press.
