Different than your typical farming column or rural writing blog, The Milk House column seeks to explore what it means to come from the countryside. It is published in print across various countries, and in several languages.
The Milk House Name
Before becoming an online resource that serves as the epicenter of all good rural writing, The Milk House was first the name of a column written by novelist Ryan Dennis first appearing in journals in 2011. The Milk House column continues today, finding new audiences as it expands across print publications worldwide.
