Good morning!

Happy Jersey Cows on lush spring grass give delicious raw milk!

Here is a quick 25-second video that Wesley shot a few days ago. The cows are so happy to be out "harvesting" their own grass again.

One of our dairy farmer friends, Kinley Coulter, says it this way:

"Watching the cows tearing around the pastures in undisguised, unabashed, undiluted joy... just like a classroom of children let out to recess on a beautiful spring day... is one of the many blessings of spring on the farm!"

Amen to that, Kinley. :)

Here's to another spring season of delicious, golden milk again!

Your Farmer,

Ground Breaking News at Family Cow farm!

After 3 long years of planning, today we literally have ground breaking news to share with you all! :) The temporary 'reefer trailers' we've been using as our Family Cow facilities since 2008 will finally be replaced by an actual building! We are thankful for how well our 'reefers' served us for the last 17 years, but it's past time for this improvement!

Behind the Scenes Video of Order Packing

Good morning friends, Today I have a quick video to show you Behind the Scenes Order Packing at The Family Cow farm! The morning work starts at 5:00 so it's often still dark this time of year... but that doesn't keep everyone from arriving promptly to get your food on the way. Watch now to see how we prepare food each week to go from our family farm to the 54 Pickup Locations across PA so you can get real, clean foods delivered to your community. It's our pleasure to do it for you! :) This footage was shot earlier this year, but I thought now would be a good time to show you what a busy packing morning looks like during the holiday season! We've been scrambling (literally) to get all the orders out the door some mornings... Hopefully before long we can do an expansion project and give us more workspace here at the farm so the packing area isn't so crowded! :) All the best of food and blessings. Your farmer, Wesley

Family Picture Night 2024

It's been two years since our last pasture picture, as our family calls them. Since then, our family has grown by five, so I believe it's high time! But first, just a little nostalgia...
