Best Practices -
Keeping Raw Milk Fresh:
Pick up your Herd Share promptly each week. We encourage you to pick up your Herd Share and any add-on services like Raw Kefir, Cream, etc. on time. Picking up your herd share promptly ensures you are enjoying your milk as fresh as possible!
There are multiple days & hours for pick up for each pick up site and you can find the details in your Member Account.
Keeping Raw Milk Cold:
Store Raw Milk between 34 - 37 degrees F. Keep raw milk away from the door of your fridge. Raw milk must be kept very cold so that it stays fresh as long as possible.
Our raw milk is sweet and fresh at least 7 - 10 days before it begins to sour as it ages. Please don’t leave milk out on the counter - keep it cold and it will be delicious!
