Purple Puddin’ {Foodie Friday}

By Susan Anglin of Spotted Cow Review

At Triple A Farms, also known as Anglin Dairy, dairy farming is much more than a job for my 4th generation dairy farming family–it’s a commitment to producing wholesome, quality dairy products for you and your family. For us, conservation of natural resources and being good stewards of the land and animals which we oversee is a way of life and fundamental to the economic survival and success of our dairy operation. 

Every day of the year, we milk 300 Holstein  cows twice daily, raise our own replacement animals and grow crops to feed our cows. Our cows enjoy eating in a well-ventilated covered feed barn that is equipped with fans and sprinklers , access to plenty of fresh water and pastures to rest in between milkings.

As members of Dairy Farmers of America Cooperative, our milk is transported to the Hiland Dairy Plant in Fayetteville for pasteurizing and  bottling.

Over the years, our family has managed our land using conservation principles. We are permitted by the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality that allows us to utilize the manure that is produced by the cows to fertilize our land for crop production, protect our environment, and enhance the economic sustainability of the farm.

As we mooove into fall, we’re extra busy with harvesting the silage crop, baling hay and caring for a new crop of baby calves. As ‘dairymom’, my duties also include providing food for the farmers. One of my family’s favorite dairy  dessert recipes is perfect for busy days. Purple Puddin’, (also known by adults as Raspberry Delight), can be prepared quickly for any occasion or season.  My mother-in-law always seemed to know when we needed a perfect sweet treat!
