CAN NOT BE SHIPPED-PICKUP ONLY

 

1 Gallon (Cream-on-Top Raw Milk)

 

 

1. Pick-Up Is First Come, First Served

Fresh, grass-fed A2/A2 Jersey milk is placed in the farmstand fridge daily.
Anyone is welcome to stop in, choose what they need, and leave payment in the cash box or via the digital payment options listed in the stand. Order ahead and we will hold milk for 48/hrs.

 

 

2. Bring Back Your Clean Jars for Exchange

We use a jar deposit system to keep everything running smoothly.

Jar Deposit

  • $7 per jar (refundable when you return a clean jar)

  • This covers the cost of the bottle itself, the lid, sanitation, and replacement when jars don’t come back.

When You Return a Jar

  • Bring back your clean, dry, scent-free jar with its lid

  • Drop it in the “returns” bin in the stand

  • Take a new full jar from the fridge

Returning a jar = no new deposit needed.
If you don’t have a jar to exchange that day, simply leave the deposit and take a new one.

 

 

3. Clean Jar Requirements

Please return Jars clean. We wash and disinfect all returned jars to us.

 

4. Founder’s Rate vs. Regular Rate

You offer two pricing tiers based on your long-running system:

 

Founder’s Rate

For your early supporters and long-term customers:

  • $5/gallon (plus jar deposit on the first visit)

 

Regular Rate

For all new milk customers:

  • $10/gallon (plus jar deposit)

Both are still well below typical local raw milk prices because your heart has always been to keep milk accessible for families in your area.

 

5. Honesty-Based System

our humble farmstand runs on the honor system.

Most families love this because they can:

  • Pick up milk anytime

  • Pay quickly

  • Swap jars without needing to schedule

It keeps the farmstand peaceful and community-centered 

 

6. What If I Forget My Jar?

No stress life happens.
Just leave the $7 deposit and take a fresh jar.
Next time you return a jar, you won’t owe another deposit unless you need additional jars.

 

7. Why We Use a Jar Deposit

  • Ensures we have enough jars for everyone

  • Helps keep milk clean, safe, & tasting the way it should

  • Cuts down on waste

  • Keeps your costs low by avoiding constant jar replacement

It also creates a rhythm of partnership between the farm and the families who drink our milk .

 

8. A Note About Availability

Because your herd is 100% grass-fed and you don’t push production, milk quantities naturally vary with the seasons.

 

You never overpromise you simply put out what the cows give, and customers can pick up as available. Just because you place the order does not mean the milk is available- we will contact you if unable to fufill order. We are a small scale dairy not a corperation with thousands of cattle, thank you for understanding.

    Bourbon Red Turkeys

    If you've visited our farm, you've probably spotted our beautiful Bourbon Red turkeys strutting around the pasture. Known for their striking deep-red feathers and calm personalities, Bourbon Reds are a heritage breed we are proud to raise.

    We chose this breed not only for their beauty but also for their historical significance and exceptional flavor. Bourbon Reds were first developed in Kentucky in the late 1800s and are prized for their rich, tender meat far superior to what you'll find in a grocery store bird. Because they are a heritage breed, our turkeys grow at a natural pace, developing strong, healthy bodies with excellent flavor and texture.

    Our Bourbon Reds are free-ranged, allowing them to forage on pasture, which contributes to their overall well-being and the nutrient density of their meat. They thrive on a diverse diet of grass, insects, and supplemental grains, and they are never given antibiotics or growth hormones.

    We believe in stewarding these birds with care and respect, preserving a breed that was once nearly lost to history. When you purchase a Bourbon Red from our farm, you're not only getting a high-quality product you’re supporting sustainable, small-scale agriculture and helping to preserve a piece of American farming heritage.
