"I've talked and thought a lot about animal ethics in the past year, and I think that working with animals is one of the best ways in which to truly understand that relationship."

for Milk

Give one, two-hour shift a week for a quart of creamy dream milk (or bar of soap) between May & Dec. Meet new people and get to know the seasonal life of the herd.
