Dahl Ranch & 4 Heart Creamery

Dahl Ranch & 4 Heart Creamery I can't wait to connect with all of you and share how we raise our animals. We are following in their footsteps today by offering home deliveries again.

I'm Marlee, and I sell meat and milk locally because I get sick from the store-bought options, and I've found that my home-raised products keep me healthy and happy. Dahl Ranch was started in 1917 by my Great Grandparents who used to do home deliveries of their milk and cream. We have always had a passion for raising our animals to be as happy and healthy as possible because we believe that happy animals produce the best tasting meat possible. We don't believe in feeding any antibiotics, hormones, or other nasty feed additives. Meat that you can trust to be nutritional, healthy, and safe for your family.

I had so much fun reading everyone's answers about what they were cooking!

It got me thinking. Would anyone be interested in a Facebook group where we could share recipes, meal ideas, cooking tips, and maybe help each other answer that never-ending question of what's for supper?

It wouldn't just be about Dahl Ranch products. I'd love for it to be a place where we can all share ideas and learn from each other.

Would you be interested in something like that?

Well, winter decided to show up a little early! ❄️

The snow started yesterday afternoon, and we've already gotten about 10–12 inches! We melted down a bucket of snow and measured 1.8 inches of moisture. We are sure thankful for it!

Last week, we started getting ready to bring the beef cows home from summer pasture. We got the gates opened and started pushing them this way. Last night they started trickling in on their own. The calves are looking awesome after a summer out on grass!

Not everyone on the ranch is enjoying this weather, though. The chickens are less than impressed, and the pigs have decided the best place to be is tucked into their warm beds. 😂

Now the power is out but the chickens are set up with a battery and an inverter for their heat lamp. Hopefully it comes back on before the battery dies🤞🤞

How are you surviving this weather?

Sorry for the inconvenience but I want everyone to stay safe.

Are you getting snow?
I think it's time to cook up a pot of soup. What is your favorite soup or food on these cold snowy days?

Are you prepared for the snow tomorrow?We are bedding up pigs and getting the last of the garden products brought in.

A new addition went into the milk room this week! 🥛

We got our new milk chilling tank set up, and I’m pretty excited about what this means for our milk.

We’ve actually outgrown my original milk chiller, which is a pretty exciting problem to have! As more milk has been going through the milk room, it was time to upgrade to something that could keep up with us.

One of my goals with 4 Heart Creamery has always been to produce the best milk I can for the families who trust us to feed theirs. That means caring for our cows well, paying attention to what they eat, keeping everything clean, and continually looking for ways we can do better.

One of the most important parts of handling fresh milk is getting it cold quickly after it leaves the cow. Our new chilling tank allows us to cool a larger amount of milk faster, which helps slow bacterial growth and maintain the freshness and quality of the milk.

It’s one more improvement in the process from our cows to your family’s refrigerator. ❤️

We’re always learning, improving, and doing our best to produce milk we feel good about feeding our own family, too.

And right now, we have extra raw A2 milk available if your family could use some! 🥛

🥛 Looking for local raw milk?

We have raw A2 cream-line milk available from our small dairy herd at 4 Heart Creamery in Clancy.

Our milk is bottled just as it comes from the cow — not pasteurized or homogenized — so you'll get that beautiful layer of cream on top. Cream-line milk, like nature intended. ❤️

Our dairy cows are fed non-GMO grain and hay, and we work hard to raise healthy, well-cared-for cows and provide local families with a source of real food they can know and trust.

Friday pickup options: 🥛 Legal Tender — 11:00 AM
🥛 Behind Montana City Store — 11:30 AM
🥛 Down Home Tack — pickup 12:30–5:30 PM
🥛 Fairgrounds — 1:00 PM

Sunday: Ranch pickup from noon–3:00 PM

Milk is $7 per half gallon.

If you've been looking for a local source of raw A2 milk, send me a message with any questions or to find out how to order.

I have a extra A2 cream available this week! 🥛🤍

If you’ve been wanting to try it, now is a good time to grab a pint. Use it in your coffee, cooking or baking—or make your own butter!

I also have skimmed A2 milk available. This is our regular raw A2 milk after I hand-skim the cream from the top. Since it’s hand-skimmed and not run through a separator, there is still some cream and milk fat left in it—it’s just not as rich as our regular whole milk.

🥛 A2 Cream — $7.50/pint
🥛 Skimmed A2 Milk — $5/jar

Both are limited to what I have available this week.

You can order through the store, or reach out to me if you have questions.

What is your favorite thing to do with cream?

🐥 The Thanksgiving chickens are here!

Our meat chicks arrived this week, and these little fluff balls should be ready to butcher around Thanksgiving.

One thing that was important to me when planning for them was their feed. These chicks will be raised on non-GMO feed, just like our dairy cows are fed non-GMO grain.

But I also want to be transparent about where we can't do that.

Our pigs are not currently fed non-GMO feed. I would love to feed them that way too, but I simply can't get enough non-GMO feed shipped in to feed all of our pigs from start to butcher. They are fed a good-quality, all-natural feed instead.

I think that's one of the benefits of knowing the person who raises your food.

You can ask what the animals ate. You can ask how they were raised. And you can get a straight answer—even when the answer isn't perfect.

For now, these little guys have a lot of growing to do. 🐥

I'll keep you updated as we raise them for Thanksgiving!

June and Strawberry BOTH calved last Friday, and they both gave us heifer calves!

The two mamas will have different jobs from here.

June will be joining our milking string and helping provide milk for 4 Heart Creamery. 🥛

Strawberry will become one of our nurse cows and raise the calves. Whenever we can, I love raising calves this way. They get fresh milk throughout the day, a cow to mother them, and the chance to grow more naturally.

We try to make our decisions based on what we believe is best for both the cow and the calf—and sometimes that means two dairy cows can have two very different jobs.

For now, we're just pretty excited to have two new little girls on the ranch. ❤️

🥛 NEW — A2 Cream!

I’m trying something new at 4 Heart Creamery!

When I have extra milk, I’m hand skimming some of that beautiful cream and offering it by the pint. Because it’s hand skimmed, the butterfat can vary a little from batch to batch.

Use it in your coffee, cooking and baking, pour it over fresh fruit — or even make your own butter! 🧈

I have a step-by-step on the blog if you want to give homemade butter a try.

For now, A2 Cream is $7.50/pint as an introductory price. Quantities will be limited and it won’t necessarily be available every week.

What would you use a pint for?
