One Kentucky dairy lets its cows decide when they want to be milked. A robot handles the job, and the cows stroll in on their own schedule. I admire that the cows get a say. That detail sent me hunting for more farms where the food story starts right in the pasture. I found grass-fed beef herds raised for decades on the same land.
