YCC

YCC stands for Young Cooperative Conference and no this is not a new Mennonite Conference...
This is a conference that is sponsored or put together by the co-op we sell our milk to. This co-op is known as Maryland & Virginia. The YCC is for people between the ages of 18 - 40 who own or work on a farm who sells their to milk to the co-op. This years conference is being held in Athens GA at the University of Georgia. I want to go and if we can work out babysitting arrangements we will be going. Here is the really cool part. The co-op pays up to $400 worth of travel expenses plus they cover all food and lodging cost. They have a speaker scheduled for one day and then one of the days they are palnnning to visit a 1200 cow dairy. This dairy milks in a 60 cow raotary parlour. I want to go...
