Our butter is now wrapped in paper! No more plastic that breaks and frustrates everyone (us included). Just simple paper wrapping that actually works. We're doing what we can to move away from plastic and towards more natural packaging. Small steps in the right direction 🧈

Raw milk contains immunoglobulins and antimicrobial compounds like lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase that naturally protect against harmful bacteria. Pasteurization destroys these natural protective systems.

Raw milk is a living ecosystem. Beneficial bacteria like Lactobacillus work alongside those antimicrobial compounds to keep harmful bacteria in check.

They balance each other. Some help you produce lactase to help you digest the milk. Others outcompete the bad guys for space. It's all working together (enzymes, probiotics, protective compounds) the way nature designed it.

Pasteurize it, and you kill the whole system. What's left is just dead liquid.

Your fridge temp matters MORE than you think when it comes to raw milk 🌡️

Most fridges run warmer than they should (38-42°F is common). But raw milk kept at 34°F will stay fresh significantly longer than milk sitting at 42°F. That's literally the difference between milk that's still sweet on day 14 vs milk that's already sour by day 5.

A few tips to get the most out of your milk:
- Check your fridge temp (a little thermometer is like $5)
- Keep milk on a middle or back shelf, never the door
- Decant into mason jars with tight lids to limit air exposure (this one's a little extra, but doable)

And hey, if your milk does get too sour to drink cold? it's not bad. raw milk doesn't spoil the way pasteurized milk does. it just ferments 🙌

Too sour for a glass? → stir in some cocoa and honey and make chocolate milk
Really sour? → take it out of the fridge and let it finish fermenting into clabber (basically old-school cultured dairy, which is delicious and your gut will thank you)

Nothing goes to waste. That's the beauty of real milk 🥛

Ever let raw milk sit too long and think you have to throw it away? You don't.

You're one step away from making clabber, a thick, tangy, probiotic-rich cultured milk that people have been eating for thousands of years.

It's literally the easiest fermented food you can make. No starter culture. No fancy equipment. Just raw milk and time.

Let it sit on your counter for 1-3 days and it transforms into something that tastes kinda like yogurt, packed with beneficial bacteria your gut will love.

Eat it with honey and fruit. Bake with it. Make cheese from it. Or just appreciate that you didn't waste perfectly good milk.

Swipe through to learn how. It's so simple you'll wonder why you haven't been doing this all along.

When animals live on pasture, eat real food, get sunshine, breathe fresh air, and move around like they're supposed to... they just don't get sick.

No antibiotics. No vaccines. No dewormers. No hormones. It's simply not necessary, and we don't do it.

Not because we're 100% against modern medicine. But because when you farm the way nature designed it, animals stay healthy on their own. It's really not that complicated.

Golden-brown chicken roasted with onions and potatoes in one cast iron skillet. The chicken fat and butter create a simple pan gravy that soaks into everything. This is comfort food at its finest, the kind of meal that fills your kitchen with the smell of home cooking and brings everyone to the table.

Have you tried our chicken, butter, and broth?

You all helped so much over the weekend. You cleared out over half of the chicken we had, helping make way for this year's harvest. We decided to extend the sale until May 25th at 11:59pm. There are just a few cuts left, all with limited quantities. Get it while it lasts!

1 week only. Starts right now and ends on 5/21. We've got too much, and we've got to make room for this year's chicken harvests. Will you help? This chicken should last at least 6 months in your freezer.

Look at that creamline! Our milk now comes from a mixed breed herd: Dutch Belt and Jersey cows. We're giving the same hefty creamline as you find with 100% Jersey milk. The taste and texture is the same. The difference? The color. Grass fed Jersey cows tend to produce a yellower cream, making that creamline much easier to see.⁠
