How Raw Milk Cheese Boosts Your Immunity

Good morning,

Last week Dad did an excellent job with his analogy Of Raw Milk and Swimming. If we want to "relax and swim" with strong immunity and good gut health we'll need as much raw living food in our diet as possible.

Thousands of families have "learned to swim" with our Organically Pastured Raw Jersey Cow Milk... And we've helped many of them take the next step to make Raw Milk Kefir at home.

But sadly Big Brother Government gets in the way of many more families who would love to buy Raw Milk or Raw Milk Kefir.

If you live outside of PA, it's perfectly fine for you to come into PA and buy Raw Milk here and take it back to your home state. But it's illegal for us to transport the milk out of PA and deliver it to your local community. Maybe someday...

But today I have good news!

Raw Milk Cheeses have all the beneficial probiotic bacteria and enzymes (lactase and more) that Raw Milk is so well known for.

And it’s perfectly legal for us to send this RAW Cheese to anyone, anywhere in the nation!

Even if you can't access other raw gut-healing foods, at least Raw Cheese is one staple you can count on. It's perfect to use in so many ways from tacos and salads to sandwiches and burgers to eating plain on your next charcuterie snack board.

"So what exactly makes Raw Milk Cheese better than other cheeses?"

1. It is Truly RAW! Complete with all the natural living enzymes, probiotics, vitamins, minerals, and healthy bacteria your body needs. Our Raw Milk Cheese is never warmed above cow's body temperature of 102° so you'll be sure to get all the natural nutrients living in Raw Milk.

2. Lactose Intolerant Friendly: Raw Milk Cheeses are usually easy to digest even for those who are Lactose Intolerant. This is because truly Raw Milk Cheese includes the enzyme lactase that is important for you body to metabolize carbohydrates and process lactose in the milk. Pasteurization disables the enzyme lactase and causes the all-too-common discomfort of Lactose Intolerance.

3. Packed with Vitamins and Protein: Each serving of Raw Milk Cheese supplies you with 7 grams of complete proteins and all nine essential amino acids. Plus it boosts your calcium and gives you vitamins A, B, D, E, and K. Do the research on how Vitamin K improves heart health and lowers calcium build up in your arteries and veins.

4. No Chemical Colorings: Our Raw Grass-fed Cow cheeses have a natural yellow tint due to the cow's diet of grass. The shade of yellow will vary throughout the year, but right now it's especially rich since our current cheese was made from milk produced during the summer or fall as the cows grazed on plenty of lush grass! Our Yellow Cheddar is naturally colored with Annatto Seed Extract.

5. No Wood Pulp or Fungicides: Grocery store shredded cheeses will sometimes include wood pulp (cellulose) as an anticlumping agent or Natamycin (WOW, read the comments) as a fungicide preservative. We never use either! If our shredded cheese clumps a little it's easy to shake it apart. We recommend freezing if you want to store the shredded cheese longer than a month.

Now you're probably impatient to grab some real Raw Milk Cheese, but I have one more thing to say...

Starting today we offer you our best prices of the year on Raw Milk Cheeses!

Welcome to: Raw Milk Cheese Savings Event!

Our cows were "extra happy" this year and they've blessed us with plenty of milk to make lots of Raw Milk Cheeses for you to enjoy! These volume savings options let you save more money on our cheese than ever before... and I'm not promising savings this amazing next year either. :)

This is one way we can thank each of you who chose to support our farm this year.

At the same time, we hope this Cheese Savings Event will make it possible for more people to begin the journey of eating gut-healing, immunity-building foods.

All the best,

Wesley

Rodrick & Jeanette are moving to Colombia, South America

Good morning Family Cow friends, Today I have some news that's a bit personal, but it only seems right that you should know. Our oldest son, Rodrick, with his wife, Jeanette, and family are planning to move to Colombia, South America next month. Yes, you heard right. Colombia South America. Just above the equator. We still can hardly believe it either :) Our church conference is starting a new congregation there at the request of local Colombians asking for a Biblical church and faith community. But it's also located on the border with Venezuela, so a big part of their work will be to help relieve the ongoing Venezuelan refugees crisis. This new congregation, "Amigos del Prójimo" (Friends of the Neighbor), is located near the border town of Cúcuta, Colombia. Jeanette grew up in Guatemala, and Rodrick has spent time there so both of them are fluent in Spanish and understand the Latin American culture. For this reason, Dawn and I were really not totally surprised that the mission board thought of them when looking for families to establish the new church plant. Their combination of skills and cross cultural experiences made them seem a natural fit. But that did not exactly make giving them up any easier! We are still working on that process! Here are a few pictures from the area near Cúcuta. Distributing meals to the homeless...   Música, anyone? 😉 I'm not sure what the point of this car was, but Rodrick said they heard it coming from several blocks away...   Checking out the countryside...   Sofia with a new little friend  Exploring a mountain road (part of the Andes mountain range)  After months of prayer and consideration and several visits to Colombia, Rodrick and Jeanette made the tough decision to answer the call to move there for an indefinite length of time. Though it is hard for us to let them go, we do give them our blessing.One comfort is that Rodrick is not abandoning The Family Cow. With today's technology, he'll still be able to do much of the management work and accounting work that he has done before... so this change shouldn't necessarily impact you, but it will represent some definite changes for our family and team.Rodrick plans to work remotely, doing many of the same business administration duties, but he will turn over the General Manager role to his younger brother Wesley. Rodrick also plans to continue giving management support to the Olde Tyme Meats butcher shop team.The other four brothers tell Dawn and I not to worry about the farm and business management, but I know there will be changes. We'll just need to find our way one step at a time.Dawn and I are not sure who's making the greatest sacrifice—the ones staying or the ones moving. :) I guess it is all of us. And that's ok.As far as Rodrick and Jeanette's Amen Acres farm, if all goes as planned, we'll have one of the other brothers live on that farm to manage the care of the grass-fed beef and pastured pork.There is no doubt about it... we will greatly miss having Rodrick and Jeanette, Andre, Clara, Sofia and Leo nearby. But they remind us that airplanes fly both ways, that they will return a few times a year for visits, and that we of course can come down to visit them too.Who knows—maybe someday Rodrick and Jeanette can grow cacao beans and make single origin organic specialty chocolate for our Family Cow tribe. How neat would that be? Don't think it's impossible. Just last week we introduced single origin organic coffee straight from Jeanette's family in Guatemala. :)In spite of unknowns, some things never change. We do know that "all things work together for good to those who love God." (Romans 8:28) So... we'll just focus on loving God and we'll trust Him to work out the good that only He knows! Faith, Hope and Love,Your farmer - Edwin for Dawn too

NEW: Organic Coffee direct from family in Guatemala!

Good morning Family Cow tribe! I have exciting news: Organic Coffee direct from Rodrick & Jeanette's family in Guatemala! Yes, this dream is finally happening. 😊 Know your farmer, know your food... taken to a whole new level! This single origin coffee is Chemical-Free, Shade-Grown, Hand Picked, and Small Batch Roasted to create a premium brew. It is a Medium-Dark roast to highlight the delicate coffee notes without the strong "burnt" flavor of many cheap brands. Coffee is often dark roasted to burn away undesirable flavors of low-grade coffee... Definitely not the case with these specialty beans! :) Taste the difference and enjoy with confidence. It's fresh organic coffee direct from a single source you can trace and trust. This specialty organic coffee is always: Single Origin from family in Guatemala (pictured below)Shade-Grown and Bird FriendlyRegeneratively FarmedSmall Batch RoastedChemical-FreeHand PickedSun Dried100% Arabic2,200 foot ElevationRetalhuleu RegionMedium / Dark RoastWhole Bean so you can fresh grind for optimum flavor! :) Meet your coffee farmers: Virgil & Jolene along with Sheldon & Dianna carefully manage each step of the process to bring you the best coffee possible without any chemical contamination.

If our coffee is sold out when you are ready to purchase, please check back in a few days. We fresh roast a small batch every week or two coffee so it won't be sold out long! :)
