does anyone have kefir grains to share in the metro boston area?

I am interested in making my own kefir but don't know where to get the grains- can anyone help?
thanks in advance

    Where are you located? I have a source that sells unpasterurized raw milk and he gives away extra kefir grains. He has a gym/health store and you can order the milk to grow kefir in too.

    I'd be willing to give you a small amount, been growing them for about a year now.

    When my jar get too full, I break a piece off and swallow it like taking a tablet.

    My contact info in on my profile page.

        Hi Sanny,

        I have a small amount that I grow just for myself, but I have shared them recently with two hounds who contacted me. My kefir grains are too low to share right now. But if you
        contact me in a month or so, I may have a few grains to share.

        I got mine from a guy who owns a gym in Woburn, who may have some to share. I sent you an email with his contact info.

        Good luck.
