About Our Raw Cow Milk

We raise registered Jersey cows for our raw milk.  Jerseys are one of the oldest cow breeds.  These heritage breed cows produce rich creamy milk with high protein and good fat content.  Jerseys produce less per milking, but the milk is of exceptional quality.  We keep the cream in the milk to protect the naturally occurring vitamin A and D, and give you superior quality taste.  

We raise our cows and calves on pasture in the summer and feed them grass during the winter.  We never feed corn, soy or GMO crops.   We do supplement with trace minerals, to keep them healthy and your milk the best nutritional value we can.  Sometimes milk will have variants in taste based on the time of year or what they are eating.  This is expected and normal.   100% Grass-fed milk is superior to conventional milk.  It offers more CLAs, omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamins B2, B12, D and E and more beta-carotenes. 

We don’t use hormones or antibiotics to treat our cows.  We try our best to prevent sickness and ailments.  However, when we do have a problem, we use herbal or natural remedies to help them feel better.   We use vitamins and immunity boosting herbs to prevent illness from getting worse or spreading.   Just keeping our cows clean and healthy cuts down significantly on sickness in our herd.
