Herd Share Purchasing is OPEN

How It Works

1 Buy A Share

Just like a stock in a company, you own a share of the herd. This is a one-time purchase. One Share = 1/2 Gallon Per week

2 Sign Agreement, Pay Boarding Fees

A digital purchase agreement will be sent to you. Your first boarding fees will be added to your first order.

3 Pickup

Receive your share of the weekly milk production from the herd. Each Share + Boarding Fees = a half gallon jar per week.

Most Common Questions

  1. What do I buy? - Once you pay for your Ownership shares, you do not have to pay them again.  The only ongoing monthly payment is the boarding fees.  If you want 1/2 gallon per week, you purchase ONE ownership share and ONE boarding fees.  If you want ONE Gallon per week, you purchase TWO shares and TWO boarding fees. 
  2. How long does it last?  This is a very tricky question to answer, because living, unpasteurized milk doesn't really "go bad", it just changes form.  If you keep the milk cold, and don't drink from the jar, you should have "fresh" tasting milk for about seven days.  After seven days, it will become increasingly sour tasting, but not harmful to consume.  
  3. What are the cows fed?  In short, grass.  From the months of April through November, the cows eat nothing but fresh pasture.  This is not possible through Ohio winters, so they are fed stored forage.   Hay is essentially sun-cured grass.  They eat a blend of hay and bailage.  Bailage is fermented hay, and the cows love it.  The fermentation helps make the nutrients of the grass more readily available for digestion. 
  4. Are the cows A2/A2?  The herd has been tested to be about 85% A2/A2 genetics.  There is a breeding plan in place that will take this to 100% in the next few years.  With that stated, most people find that unpasteurized, LIVING milk does not need to be A2/A2 in order to digest well. 
  5. I missed my milk pickup, now what?  You own your milk.  You can choose to send someone to pickup your milk if you know you won't be here. If that does not work, you can ask for your milk to be donated.  We have plenty of families who are thankful to receive donated raw milk when it is available.  
  6. Can I pickup every other week?  Right now, the logistics is only setup to handle weekly pickups. We are trying to figure out a way to manage less frequent pickups, but it looks like we are going to be sticking to weekly for the foreseeable future. 
  7. Cream, Yogurt, other products?  Right now, we only offer milk in half-gallon glass jars.  The Keim Family is researching the production of cream and yogurt.  We anticipate to have something in place before summer 2025.  
  8. Ordering beef, chicken, eggs, cheese and more  Beginning in February, milk deliveries to off-farm pickup points will only be made for herd share owners who periodically have food orders of $85/per month or more delivered to the same locations.  Milk-only deliveries are no longer financially viable for the off-farm pickup locations.  Food orders are to be placed  HERE
