Besides bringing in a steady income your cream has become an important item to the progress of the war — market it in the best condition possible at Bridgman Creameries.

Why We Chose It
We deliver this topic regularly because it’s so dramatically different in Minot today. In this era, local food and locally processed food was abundant. First we grew it, then we processed it, then we ate it. Today, it is scarce. First we grow it, then we export it, then a multinational corporation processes it, marks it up, and imports it back. Then we buy it from another multinational corporation. Then we eat it. We’re not completely sure this is actually the most efficient system.
