Produce:
La Esperanza Farms in Nevada, TX
Unfortunately it's hard to find them anywhere online, but they have a HUGE presence at the markets they frequent! Their stands are full of a huge variety of organic fruits and veggies that are sure to please, and the father/son duo has fantastic customer service! Another great thing about them: their prices are SO low and their quality is SO high! We always see them at the Belt Line - Four Seasons Market on Sundays, but I they've talked about starting to go to Four Season's Saturday Campbell market as well. Right now they're limitted by not having enough retail help at the markets, so they keep the operation small with only 1 market day each week.
Bread:
Empire Baking Company Dallas, TX
We see them at the Vickery Meadow Good Local Market each Sunday, but they also have a retail store on Lovers Lane. For more information on where to find them, check out their Facebook.
Milk:
Dry Valley Dairy Forestburg, TX
Dry Valley Dairy Forestburg, TX
Fine producers of raw dairy products, including milk and cream, located at 100 Dry Valley Rd, Forestburg, TX 76239. They are currently our favorite raw milk producer. It's a bit of a drive, but totally worth it.
Lavon Farms (AKA Lucky Layla) Plano, TX
Their raw milk (not pasteurized or homogenized) must be purchased on their farmland located at 3721 North Jupiter Rd in Plano, TX, but they also have many other dairy products under the Lucky Layla Brand which can be purchased at their farm store in addition to various retailers including: Whole Foods, HEB, Central Market, Sprouts, Cupboard Natural Foods, and many more.

**We do have to note that as of 6/26/16 they have been out of milk for almost 2 months, and we are sadly very close to taking our business elsewhere. Their convenience is amazing, and the milk tastes great when it is there...but we can't be a milk-free family for much longer.**
**Update: While they do have milk back in stock, they frequently run out. Additionally, their milk is very expensive. We are currently part of a co-op getting milk and cream from Dry Valley Dairy. For more info on this co-op, please email blinx64@gmail.com **
