    This video only scratches the surface of what's going on in the local dairy industry right now. We are loosing small farms at an alarming rate, but a group of volunteers have come together, doing everything they can to help save them. They are 97Milk.
    As a one-man operation, I did what I could to touch on a few topics that are making a big impact on the local economy and I hope you have learned something new today.
    To learn more about what Nelson and team at 97Milk are doing, please visit www.97milk.com
    My 3-week stay in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania, was an incredible eye-opening experience and I want to thank all the famers who I met along the way for sharing your time with me. And a huge thanks to Nelson for making all of this happen.
    To the farmers around the world who share the same struggle, my wish for you is that you find happiness and success in whatever solution you come up with. Your hard work and dedication is something that the world needs to understand and appreciate.
    If you are a consumer and would like to learn more about what's going on in the world of small dairy, below are some of the sites where I sourced my information.

    Thanks for sticking up for the very few farmers in the United States 🇺🇸....The very, very few hard working small farmers. What would we do without cheese on a pizza or ice cream....real cream is the best!

    It's so true about the school. The boys won't drink the milk and if they do, it will be chocolate milk but then the school gives them juice. I don't get it!

      Something I never thought! I've been talking to teachers lately and they all say the same thing, too! It's like the school system is just meeting a quota, but all it turns into is waste :(

      bovine milk is full of hormones (since the cow has recently given birth). These female bovine hormones are not needed for HUMAN BOYS. wake up people.

    I love milk but school milk is basically water with milk in it, it is absolutely disgusting.

    Absolutely love these videos. Love seeing someone from out of town let alone state, come to the local area and just fit in so well and understand everything. But I must say how you got that drone footage of Triple M. Just by saying hello.. PLEASE try and do that with an amusement park/resort call Knoebels. You want an eye opening experience and just all around great time and place, Definitely strongly recommend it.

      I can't wait to see what other crazy experiences I get into just by showing up somewhere and saying, HELLO! Ha, not all videos can be done that way, but the idea is that I know nothing about the person and that's what makes these videos so fun to make! It's just an organic introduction into someone else's life. I'm glad you've been enjoying them and thanks for watching!
      As for the suggestion, I'll definitely make a note of it and see if it works out for next year's visit back to Central PA. They have an unique concept I've never seen before.

      They definitely have a unique experience that you will never find at any other amusement park, I find a lot of out of state visitors don't fully understand the park, but judging by your video, at the fair and all around Lebanon and Lancaster, I know you should DEFINITELY understand the true meaning and value of the park, yea you can watch other CZcams videos to get an idea, but its an experience you have to feel for yourself.

    Really the economics of pasture based dairying which need no buildings or farm machinery keeping cattle outside all winter and feeding custom harvested feed with the cattle moving across the land all winter spreading their manure while being fed so that a dairy can make profit at $8-10/hundred weight while build fertility thus forage yeild thus milk production year after year are the driving force and have been so since 1980's. Lot of crazy stories masking this but dairying that only needs one employ for each 250 head in a herd because herds are managed as a herd not costly I individual treatment is real.
