Raw Milk Herd Shares

Unfortunately, in the State of Virginia the sale of raw milk is illegal. Crazy, I know. As farmers, we cannot simply sell our cow's milk. The State of Virginia only allows you to drink raw milk from cows you own, hence why we offer shares in our cow herd, so that you can enjoy clean, unpasteurized raw milk, from happy, healthy, grass fed cows.

Whole shares include 1 gallon a week, and half shares include a half a gallon a week. We provide the jars, and we clean and sterilize your used jars.  We provide you your milk each week for 52 weeks.

An agister simply means, the person who will pasture, feed, maintain, care, control and milk the dairy herd. 

Unfortunately, no. Just like one can purchase shares or stock in a company, this is essentially the same concept. When you purchase a share, and pay for your monthly agister fee, you get to enjoy the rewards, by receiving a gallon or half a gallon a week, without having to own a cow.

We offer additional whole shares for $15, with a $15 monthly agister fee. Each additional whole share will receive an extra gallon a week.

We raise AJCA Registered  (American Jersey Cattle Assoc.) Jerseys. Our herd is the offspring of New Zealand Jersey Cattle. In the world of jerseys; New Zealand  jerseys; were bred to produce better milk and higher butter fat all on grass. Not all cows can sustain on a 100% grass fed diet, whereas New Zealand Jerseys, can without affecting milk production. 

Raw milk that is handled safely is healthy. As a dairy, our main mission at milking time is bio security, meaning we clean the cows udders before milking, we only milk with clean and sterilized equipment, and we only use clean and sterilized bottles for the milk. As for the health benefits we urge you to head over to The Real Milk Foundation.
