Raw Milk – Lancaster, PA
$144 (1/2 gallon) for full season (Weekly Delivery)
Our raw milk comes from PA family farms that are licensed to sell raw milk. The milk comes from 100% Jersey cows, which according to milk lovers, produce the most creamy and delicious milk. It is non-homogenized and non-pasteurized, and is produced on a humane, non-toxic, pasture-based dairy farm that practices small-scale, traditional processing. The cows graze outdoors all day (except for milking time) and their pasture is constantly rotated to allow the grass to continue to grow. Their diet is supplemented with conventional grain (transitioning to organic) but they don't need much of that except in the winter when there is no grass.
