Are you dreaming of starting a dairy business? Want to make cheese, ice cream, yogurt, butter or other dairy products on a small scale? Or would you simply like to milk cows, goats or sheep and sell the milk to someone else -- perhaps an organic cooperative, a cheesemaker or a crossroads creamery?

This is the group where you can explore your dreams before actually jumping in and making investments. Experienced operators and others in the planning stages will share their experience and expertise.

We want people who will be active participants, not lurkers. Of course you can "just listen" if you have nothing to say, but we'd rather you get your questions asked and answered.
