Warm days are ahead.

Toronto, Ontario, Canada, about 1950. Toronto Al's Mom cools off by drinking a carton of milk.

"No, you are trampling my field, go away."

Richard Branson's hot air balloon touches down in a field near Kaunas,* and the farmer refuses to give Branson a taste of fresh milk. 

"You cannot drink the milk right in the field. Additionally, calves were just born, cows are still giving first milk; therefore, they were still bleeding. These people are not farmers, they do not even check. Cows’ bottoms… I can show you the calves[.]"

 

Here in Wisconsin, we know raw milk is no laughing matter.
