I am a wife and mother navigating homeschool and being a homemaker to our family while practicing homesteading and farming (micro, raw milk dairy).

Our raw milk subscription offers on farm pick up or delivery to local pick up points

Monday Milk Delivery

Hey Hey, Sem Julep Farm milk members!
As a homeschooling and farming family, we're usually a little late to the trends, but as we bottled milk on 6/7, we couldn’t resist.

This week's Monday delivery is officially "six... seeeeven" milk.

Fresh from our dairy ladies, bottled with care, and ready for your family’s table.

Enjoy sharing your 6/7 milk with your families this week. We hope it brings a smile to the breakfast table, a laugh from the kids, and plenty of good memories made over a cold glass of milk.

So glad that Tumbleweed has given us 2 heifers in a row. Her first daughter born on our farm, Bea, is due with her first calf this fall. Her second daughter, Aurora, is getting halter broke and handled for show and future milk cow status. Aurora is the first AI heifer born on our place. She is by .farms sire Harold-P. We used .farms consulting services to determine which bills would best suit each of our jersey girls.

The herd got their annual mani/pedi today.

Show steer ✔
Mini Jersey bull ✔️
Mini Jersey heifers ✔️
Milking queens ✔️

Good feet. Good health. Good stewardship.

Caring for animals is often less about cute calves and more about the little things that keep them healthy for years to come.

It’s tough work practicing to be a future milk cow!

*Update: Pork is sold out for 2026. Thank you to all for supporting our farm.*

Spring is slowly waking the farm back up around here

The grass is starting to green, calves are here, and the dairy girls are back to rotating through fresh pasture. Seeing the milk pails fill each morning is my reminder that it’s time to start planning for this year’s pigs.

We’re now taking reservations for our 2026 half and whole pork.

Our pigs are pasture-raised and fed non-GMO feed, with some of their feed soaked in water, whey, or skim milk.

Processing date: December 8, 2026
Processor: MeeMaw’s Meats – Berthold, ND

2026 pricing:
• $6.50/lb hanging weight
• Includes raising the pig, delivery to the processor, and basic cuts & wrapping
• Smoking, curing, bacon, or seasoned sausage are additional butcher costs, if requested

Deposit to reserve:
• $500 whole hog
• $250 half hog

We only raise a limited number each year.

Reserve your pork for this fall by sending Sem Julep Farm a facebook message or email us at [email protected].

As the daylight gets longer and our temps increase it is time to start preparing our plants for their life outdoors. I bet they are enjoying the beautiful sunshine just like us.

This soap didn't turn out how I envisioned...but it ended up looking like the land we steward daily.

Not every batch follows the plan and that's part of the work too.

Same skin-loving ingredients.
Same care in every batch.

Come see us this weekend at the Home and Garden Show in the Mountrail Co South Complex and Fair Building:
Friday, April 24 | 3:30-8 pm
Saturday, April 25 | 9 am - 2 pm

The dairy girls enjoying their first pasture turnout of 2026. This cell was not grazed in 2025 so we are choosing to let the girls enjoy it early this spring because it is much better than the sacrifice pen they have lived in all winter.

Lard is just as abundant in our home as tallow.

So we use it the same way… intentionally, and without waste.

To honor the pork we raise, we created our heritage soap line:
Cowboy Polish and our limited batch, Morning Chore.

The tallow and lard for our handmade balms and soaps comes from animals processed right here on our farm. Most were raised and finished by us. All were handled by our family in our on-farm meat shop.

Rendering tallow is a traditional preservation method. Slowly and intentionally, it separates clean, shelf-stable fat from connective tissue and moisture. When done properly, it creates a stable, nutrient-rich base that has been used for generations in both cooking and skincare.

We render in small batches, strain carefully, and store with intention so it becomes a dependable foundation for our balms and soaps.

Whole animal stewardship isn’t a trend to us. It’s a production standard we hold ourselves to.
