Best local farm!!!
What is a herd share and why does it benefit us and our members?
A herd share is a contractual arrangement where individuals buy a partial ownership interest in a dairy herd and pay a farmer to board, feed, and milk the animals. This allows members to legally obtain raw, unpasteurized milk for personal consumption in states where the direct sale of raw milk is prohibited.
Jefferson has a food sovereignty law now that allows us to sell our products directly off the farm but that hasn’t always been the case. This was only placed into effect last year, and so we decided to carry on our herd share. When a member buys in, they OWN a small portion of our farm and animals. This portion helps pay for the best animal feed, hay, vet and hoof services. This share allows our members full access to all of our products including raw milk. We holistically raise a variety of animals for our family and members but the dairy girls are the Queen’s of the farm. On average the past few years we’ve been able to provide fresh, wholesome raw milk and goods to 18 local families each week.
Our goal was never to get big enough to need a store, to bottle in plastic or to need an outside source. We wanted real milk and meat raised without 💉 for our family. We feel blessed being able to provide others with the same! We offer you a real farm to fork experience here. You’ll get to see our animals when you pickup each week an we’re always crafting something new. What you fuel your body with-MATTERS. Real means REAL, and it doesn’t get much more real than purchasing directly from a farm. All of our dairy is bottled by hand into glass jars. Our cows never receive vaccinations and if at any point and time one of our animals needs an antibiotic, their products are pulled from our shelves until the withdrawal period is over. We’re always up front and honest about what we put into our food. We want you to ask ALL the questions!
So, we’ll be selecting one lucky individual or family at random, to receive a herd share paid in full by us. Our herdshare runs at $150 for the year or $12.50 a month. You’ll have unlimited access to our fridge and freezers like other members as well as the very best raw A2A2 milk. This is a committed weekly or biweekly pickup. If you can’t commit to picking up regularly than please don’t enter our giveaway. This herd share will run from May 1st, 2026 until May 1st, 2027.
