Grand Marais has a dairy farm. On the Gunflint Trail behind Pincushion Mountain is the Berglund family farm. This family farm was established in 1886 and up until the 1950's did include a dairy farm. From the 50's until recently, the family kept just enough dairy cows to keep themselves supplied. In 2006 the Berglund family has increased milk production to a dozen cows, distributing the milk, cream and butter on the premise with a self-serve donation.
I have never had unpasturized milk and am planning to stop by the diary the next time I drive into Grand Marais. I want to try the milk and see the view of Lake Superior that those cows get to enjoy.
Weather Update: We are having a little heat wave today. For the first time in about 3 weeks the temperatures are up over freezing. According to the paper this past week, we might still have a little warm up in November. Sarah and I took advantage of the warmer weather and took a walk today.
