Description
Jersey cow milk, cream, yogurt, and butter, organically raised but not certified.
Learn more
Milk, cream, and butter is sold direct on Great Hopes Farm. Their products are also available local coops such as Marsh River Coop in Brooks and Belfast Coop. The cows are well cared for, and get plenty of time on pasture and good hay and feed in winter. No GMO products are used in feeding, and if it weren't for the prohibitive cost of being certified, they could probably label their milk products organic.
