Jersey Diary Cattle
The Farmstead Family Milk Cow
All of our cows are A2A2 Jerseys. They require appropriate nutrition to stay fit and healthy. You can expect our girls to be rotationally grazed during growing season, get grain and alfalfa at milking time, free choice access to natural protein and minerals and high quality hay in the winter.
Sage River Farmstead regularly tests our milk quality and maintains annual health checks as well as state required blood test | health screening.
Jersey milk is naturally rich, creamy and full flavored. Known for its high cream percentage and a smooth velvety texture. Jerseys naturally have the highest protein and butterfat content of any dairy breed. This results in more nutritionally dense milk and artisan dairy products.
Our milk comes from A2A2 cows, meaning it contains only A2 type beta-casein protein. Many people find A2 milk easier to digest and gentler on the stomach than conventional milk. Rich, creamy and naturally nourishing, it delivers all the nutritional benefits of farm fresh milk with more readily digestible protein.
