herd share

This checklist ensures milk stays fresh and safe while preventing contamination and spoilage. Practicing proper milk handling and storage is crucial to maintain the nutritional quality, safety, and hygiene of milk by preventing bacterial growth and contamination, ensuring that the milk is suitable for consumption and retains its beneficial components.

We don’t sell raw milk. We do something better. We offer you a way to own a part of the herd. It’s called a herd share, and it’s a simple, legal way to enjoy fresh milk straight from the cows you co-own. When you buy a herd share, you're not buying milk, you're buying into the life of a dairy cow. That means your share of the milk is yours to pick up each week, just like any other co-owner.

Here’s how it works:

A peek into the personalities within our herd share. At McGreen Acres, our herd share program isn’t just about a product, it’s a relationship. Our herd share members don’t just help maintain milk cows for part of the milk production, they become part of the story that starts in our pastures and ends at your table. So we’d like to introduce you to the real stars of the show: the cows who make it all happen. Each one has her own story, personality, and quirks. Every gallon of milk reflects the love and care we pour into their lives.
