Is Raw Milk safe to drink?
We know why your reading this and get you mamma. You want to do what’s best for your family and you are doing a fantastic job, give yourself a little pat on the back.
Raw Milk is absolutely safe when sourced correctly. What I mean by that is the cow health, environment and feed have a lot to do with the by-product: aka the milk.
A cow is a living creature. By respecting the cow and giving it all of its needs - you in turn receive a superior product.
CLEANLINESS IS KEY
Making sure the cows and the facility is clean is key.
When your home, would you use the same dish for every meal without cleaning it in-between? Nope. Ew-gross.
On our farm we do extra steps in cleaning our cows and facilities because ain’t nobody like a dirty plate…or in our case - dirty milk.
If our milk does get contaminated, which rarely happens, we dump the whole thing. *Ouch.* We take a hit to ensure the best product. Does every farm do this? Nope. But we do! Getting to know your farmer helps you understand what their values are. Find farmers you trust and ask questions!
When a farm has a good routine for cow care (bedding, feeding, water, proper space) the cows are so happy. When you have happy cows, you have THE BEST milk.
Our Raw Milk and Cream is safe to drink because we take the time to do our best work on the farm. Not just because we’re making a living at what we do…it’s because we drink this milk too! We want what’s best for our consumers and family.
