Milk Delivery Day

Let's deliver milk..follow me around East Tennessee..
French's Market in Oliver Springs sells Cruze Farm Buttermilk.  This store has been owned by the French family for many many years.  While I am here, I like to get local honey for my biscuits and chat with Ray French!

Tomato Head -Maryville sells Cruze Farm Chocolate Milk.  Tomato Head also uses our buttermilk to make their biscuits rise better!  Check their site for daily specials.  You can call ahead (865.981.1080) to order or even order online. The Pizza is always good and save room for key lime pie (yum). This day was an extra special day, I got to see Jeffrey's daughter, Lula!
The Market in Maryville is our next stop.  February 28 is the Taste of the Market so mark your calendars.  At the Market, you can find Laurel Creek Meats.  Tracy has an assortment of meats from his farm and other farms.  Come check it out!  The Market also serves lunch!  Lately, I have been a cracker and ginger ale customer if you know what I mean.  I love the Boylan Ginger Ale.

Magpies Bakery uses Cruze Farm Buttermilk to make their cakes rise!  This day, we see Miss Magpie herself, Peggy Hambright (pictured above), makin' Benton's Bacon chocolate chip cookies for Sweet P's BBQ.  I love delivering here..so many yummy treats to take on the road.





Three Rivers Market was our first customer.  Back in 1981, we bottled our first gallon of milk.  Three Rivers Market (Knoxville's Food Coop) was the first place we delivered to.  Thank you Three Rivers for 30 years of support.  Three Rivers supports many other local farms: Kenny's Farmhouse Cheese, Sweetwater Valley Farms, Locust Grove Farm and TN Valley Eggs.





Next stop is The Bistro at the Bijou Theatre.  The Bistro uses milk and buttermilk.  Buttermilk for Martha's cornbread and Buttermilk Ranch dressing (and Chocolate milk for the gals).  Check here for shows at the Bijou so you can make it an extra special night. See a show at the Bijou and dinner at The Bistro! 
Greenlife Grocery in Chattanooga sells Cruze Farm milk.   At Greenlife Grocery, you can find many local products like Sequatchie Cove cheese and Señor Shan's Hot Sauce.  I love checking out the soups and even sampling a couple.  Also, they have a huge assortment of delicious cheeses.  

Last stop, class at UT with Dr. Hazari.  This is my Chemistry professor.  He loves biscuits and milk as you can see.  He also loves Magic! Dr.Hazari is a passionate chemist.. watch this and you will see.
