🤎🌾 Happy National Farmers Day from our family to yours. 🐄

Sometimes I think about how much of our lives are wrapped up in this farm. The early mornings when the rest of the world is still sleeping. The late nights when there’s still work to be done. The worry, the sacrifices, the exhaustion, and the days when things don’t go as planned. The moments when you wonder how you’re going to keep going, but you get up the next morning and do it all over again.

Because this is more than a job to us. This is our life. This is our livelihood. This is our legacy.

As a fourth-generation dairy farmer, we carry a piece of the generations before us in everything we do. They worked this land, cared for their animals, and made sacrifices so the next generation could have a chance to continue. And now, it’s our turn to carry that responsibility forward.

There is something incredibly special about knowing that the work we do today is part of a story that began long before us. I often wonder what those generations before me would think if they could see us now, still milking cows, still working the land, still trying to make a living doing what they loved and what we love.

Farming isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always profitable. And it certainly isn’t easy. There are days when the weight of it all feels heavier than anyone could ever understand. But then there are the quiet moments in the barn, the familiar faces of our cows, the first signs of a new life, and the thought that somewhere, a family is sitting around their table enjoying something that came from our farm. And somehow, it all feels worth it again.

We’ll keep showing up. We’ll keep doing our best. We’ll keep caring for the animals entrusted to us and putting our hearts into the food we produce.

Because farming isn’t just about what we leave behind. It’s about what we pass on.

To every farmer who has ever wondered if the sacrifices are worth it, who has missed family moments, worked through exhaustion, worried about making ends meet, or loved this life even when it broke their heart a little — I see you. I understand you. And I’m proud to stand beside you.

And to our customers, thank you. Every time you choose to buy from our farm, you are doing more than purchasing milk or other farm-fresh goods. You are helping a family keep a tradition alive. You are helping make sure there is still a next generation of farmers. You are becoming a small part of our story, and that means more than you know.

From our family, our cows, and our little corner of South Dakota — thank you for being here.

Happy National Farmers Day. May we never forget the hands that feed us, the families behind our food, and the generations of hard work that brought us here. 🤎🚜🌾

With love and gratitude,
~Scheetz

🍅 Meet the Carolina Gold Tomato! 🌞

A little sunshine in tomato form! 💛

Carolina Gold tomatoes are known for their beautiful golden-orange color, mild sweetness, and low-acid flavor. These gorgeous tomatoes bring a bright, sweet, and slightly fruity taste to the table.

✨ Why we love them:
🍅 Beautiful golden-orange flesh
💛 Sweet, mild flavor with less tang than traditional red tomatoes
🌿 Delicious sliced fresh, tossed into salads, or cooked into sauces
☀️ A colorful twist on a garden favorite

Whether you enjoy them fresh from the garden, roasted to bring out their natural sweetness, or turned into something delicious in the kitchen, Carolina Gold tomatoes are a golden little treasure!

Have you tried a Carolina Gold tomato yet? 🍅💛

🥛🐄 Another round of raw milk testing results is in! ❤️

At Scheetz Mercantile, we believe transparency matters. We want our customers to know what we’re testing for and how our milk is measuring up!

Here are the results from our latest lab reports:

✨ SPC: Less than 2,500
✨ Coli: 15
✨ Campylobacter: Negative
✨ Salmonella: Negative
✨ E. coli O157: Negative
✨ Listeria monocytogenes: Negative

These results reflect our commitment to careful milk handling, sanitation, and ongoing testing here on our farm.

We’re a fourth-generation dairy farm, and caring for our cows and the milk they produce is something we take PRIDE in every single day. ❤️

🥰Thank you to everyone who supports our small family dairy and chooses to make Scheetz Mercantile part of your family’s food journey. Your support means the world to us!

Real farmers. Real food. A family farm you can know and trust. 🐄🥛

Just imagine what would happen if we ALL supported our local farmers/producers. Quality and nutrition would be at the forefront of EVERY dish you served your customers!

Support local/family owned small businesses! 🙌

Farmers, Distributors, Producers, Food Brands, Craft Makers, Equipment Supply, Paper Products, Cleaning Products. Wherever you can, support the small guys. Sysco is trying to completely monopolize the U.S. Food system and we need to stop them one small business at a time.

Here at Beradu we try to work with as many local small producers and farms as we possibly can and support smaller distributors not affiliated or owned by the Sysco conglomerate.

Happy Wednesday!! Hope you enjoy our new window decals♥️
