Our Unique Practices
-
100% family-run operation, right here in Floyd County.
All hands on deck! (this includes littles!)
Our herd has less than a dozen milking cows - truly small-scale.
We milk for our family, and then share with you!
-
No seed oils or canola meal.
No pre-ground feed mixes or TMRs.
No GMOs or soy.
No antibiotics, wormers, hormones, chemicals, sprays.
No overgrazed fields.
No calf / cow horn removal.
No calf culling.
-
All are nature-sourced, with 100% bioavailable minerals & vitamins:
Alfafa Hay, provides superior & quickly-absorbed protein.
Golden Valley Raw Apple Cider Vinegar (whole-apple, Idaho-sourced). Helps “pre-digest” and unlock starch in grain. Contains complex live enzymes, probiotics, beneficial microbes; helps with energy, detox, digestion, immunity, parasites.
Molasses, also contains antioxidants, aids in fiber digestion & protein efficiency.
Thorvin Kelp (Icelandic, geothermal, organic, dried at low temps).
Sea 90 Mineral Salt (ocean-sourced, organic, unprocessed, unrefined).
-
Tested for 100% A2/A2 genetics.
Our milk is completely raw - straight from the cow, into your jars!
You get 100% of the milk’s cream in each jar of milk - no skimming.
Glass jars - for full visibility of the splendid creamline on this milk!
-
We milk on a schedule, for cow health.
Most cows are milked just once a day.
We clean each cow teat by hand, and use pre- and post- dips.
Our family drinks milk from every single batch.
-
We feed small amounts of grain (for cow rumen health).
Always whole grain (never pre-ground), so nutrients are intact.
“Pre-digested” with the highest quality raw apple cider vinegar.
Always soaked (reduces phytates & enzyme inhibitors).
Always as locally grown as possible.
This mimics what cows eat when in fields full of seed heads.
Includes non-GMO barley, rye, wheat, oats, corn.
-
We move our cows to fresh grass every day!
This practice is called rotational grazing.
Grass gets 30+ day rest period between grazing.
Our soil is happy and "regenerated". Our grass is lush & nutrient-dense!
-
The cow diet mirrors what a roaming bovine would eat in a diverse ecosystem.
We never feed any canola oil, canola meal, or other seed oils.
Low in polyunsaturated. monounsaturated, & unsaturated fats.
High in healthy raw saturated fat!
-
All of our cows, heifers, steers, calves, and bull(s) are called by name!
Each cow get lots of one-on-one attention at each milking.
Our sweet calves receive horn rubs rather than horn removal.
Each calf is bottle-fed by hand.
Our family's youngest help with milking cows, feeding calves - and taste-testing fresh milk :)
We love our cows, and consider them part of our family!
