All of our milk products are made with 100% grass fed sheep milk from our farm. Our sheep are pasture raised and they are only milked in the summer months when there is fresh green grass.

  • Sheep’s milk, cultures, and rennet form the base elements of the majority of our artisanal products. In select products , salt is incorporated to enhance flavor profiles. It is worth noting that many commercial dairy items available in stores often contain modified milk ingredients— this is a lower grade milk powder blended with vegetable oils and sugars. Our feed representative once promoted this as the industry standard; while it was more affordable than the premium milk replacer we provide to our lambs, we remain committed to quality and authenticity in all that we produce.

  • All of our products are available on farm only. From June to October we have a Farm Stand you are welcome to. Open 10 am-7pm daily. The array of products will change throughout the months dependant on availability. With the hard raw milk cheeses available in August after aging 2 months
