Dairy & Eggs

This week’s options include:

• Grass-fed, organic, non-homogenized, low heat pasteurized milk, butter, cheese  (cottage cheese and GGC sharp cheddar), kefir, sour creamvand yogurt! Due to an unfortunate Fall dry spell, our cows grazed on less fresh grasses and more hay which lowers cream production. This makes it difficult to keep whipping cream in stock. So, plan ahead if you want some. We are already sold out for the week. So, please request for next week and the following.

• Chicken eggs AND duck eggs this week! Our eggs are hand harvested and cleaned. Our chickens are raised on not simply organic but also a soy free grain mix along with their free range diet. There really is nothing like the consistency and flavor of these delectable treats from heritage breeds . . . we bring out the connoisseurs!

Learn more about our eggs and why the creamy, delicious dairy we carry tastes so good!
