Weekly Spotlight: CVT Soft Serve 🍦

What started as a food truck connecting people to the nostalgia and taste of soft serve ice cream on the streets of Los Angeles has become a nationwide store sensation. This brand started in 2014 but only recently started packaging soft serve to-go, and in the past few years has been able to keep soft serve accessible, portable, simple, high-quality, and delicious. Joe Nicchi had a vision and made it happen, which I can relate to!

Sometimes innovation looks like doing one thing really, really well.

Imagine coming home from work to find your house spotless, your bed freshly made, and dinner waiting for you… sounds pretty great, right!?

That’s kind of what it’s like for dairy cows!

While they’re in the parlor being milked, farmers are busy cleaning their pens, adding fresh bedding, refilling feed, and making sure everything’s ready for when the cows come back.

It’s all part of keeping them comfortable, healthy, and well cared for every single day.

If you’ve never seen a chute before, it might look a little intimidating, but I promise, it’s not about being mean to the cows!

Chutes are designed to keep everyone safe, including both the cow and the people working with her. They gently hold the cow still so we can safely trim hooves, give vaccines, or do health checks without anyone getting hurt.

It’s all about calm, careful handling and making sure the process is as stress-free as possible.

Let’s talk about it.

There are so many wild claims out there about dairy farms and milk. Some of them really make me stop and go, “Wait… where did that even come from?” 😅

If you’ve heard something that doesn’t sound quite right (or you’re just genuinely curious), drop it in the comments! I plan on replying to help clear things up!

Dairy is having a moment again... we got milk! 🥛

More people are returning to dairy for its protein, fewer additives, and that “real food” feel.

What fascinates me (and why I’m writing a book about milk perceptions) is that people keep looking for one right choice whether it be dairy or plant-based, whole or skim, but it depends on your needs, values, and lifestyle.

So what do you think: is dairy’s comeback common sense or just another swing of the pendulum?

TB testing day! 🐄🩺 Over 1,000 heifers to check, and yes, it’s just as busy as it sounds!

No matter how many animals I’m caring for, each one gets the same level of attention, care, and respect. Every heifer matters, and maintaining herd health starts with making sure each individual is healthy too. 💪❤️

Can non-vets use ultrasound machines? 🤔

Ultrasound can be an incredibly useful tool on the farm, especially for things like pregnancy checks or embryo transfers. But here’s the thing: having the equipment isn’t the same as knowing how to use it.

That’s why it’s so important to work closely with your veterinarian. They can help make sure the ultrasound is used correctly, safely, and that the results are accurate for the health of both you and your animals. 🐄💙

: GoodSport Nutrition
GoodSport is reimagining hydration with a dairy-based sports drink made from ultrafiltered real milk—packed with electrolytes, protein, and natural nutrients.

I love seeing brands celebrate real dairy nutrition while keeping sourcing transparent and functional. After hearing founder Michelle McBride speak, it’s clear how much passion and purpose fuels this product.

If you’re looking for a smarter way to hydrate, give GoodSport a try!

What’s the secret to training cows?

Positive reinforcement!

Cows learn best through calm, consistent handling and positive experiences. Whether it’s training them to enter the milking parlor, walk on a halter, or stand quietly for exams, rewarding good behavior (instead of punishing bad) helps build trust and confidence.

It’s amazing how far kindness and patience can go in the barn and beyond. 💛

Cows are totally comfortable in their stanchions whether they’re locked or open!

These stanchions (also called headlocks) are a normal part of their routine. Most of the time, cows can move in and out freely. But when it’s time for things like health checks, vaccines, or exams, locking them in place helps keep everyone (both cows and people) safe.

It might look restrictive, but it’s actually designed to minimize stress and make handling calm and efficient. Sometimes, a little structure makes a big difference!

Why are cows able to produce so much more milk today than in years past?
I’ll give you a hint… it’s NOT because of being injected with anything. 💉🚫

The real reason cows today produce more milk comes down to better cow wellbeing and the fact that we understand them a lot better now because we’re constantly learning more and improving practices.

It’s not about pushing them harder. It’s about taking better care of them.
