Ran-Lew Dairy milk is wholesome and natural, pretty much the way it came out of the cow. And it's bottled right on the farm! Our milk is non-homogenized and low-temp pasteurized, preserving as many naturally occurring nutrients and enzymes as possible while killing any potentially harmful bacteria.
Our milk is non-homogenized. This means that the cream will rise to the top. Give the jug a good shake before pouring to recombine the cream.
Milk is delicious on its own, cold in a tall cup. However, this kitchen staple can also be used to make a myriad of things -- chocolate milk (cold or hot), sauces, creamy soups, puddings, baked goods, and so much more!

Ran-Lew Dairy loves and cares for 50 milking cows. Here are some things that make Ran-Lew's dairy unique:
✓ Diverse herd with heritage breeds. Ran-Lew has a mix of cows -- registered Holsteins, Jerseys, Guernseys, and one Milking Shorthorn.
✓ The cows are pasture raised. They spend their days grazing in pastures around the farm as much as the weather allows.
✓ The cows help replenish and restore the land. Cows produce manure, liquid gold when it comes to fertilizer. This is part of a holistic system that naturally replenishes the soil year after year.
✓ The cows aren't given drugs. They're naturally happy and healthy. They aren't given artificial hormones and they are only treated with antibiotics when they are sick, which is rare (and in those cases their milk is not processed).
These practices result in delicious milk with a rich flavor and high nutrition.

Our milk is pasteurized to the lowest temp allowed, which preserves max nutrition. You won't find those top-quality nutrients and enzymes in milk from the big industrial food companies -- they've been altered by fast, high-temperature, ultra-pasteurization used to gain additional shelf-life.
Our milk is also non-homogenized, leaving the fat globules in their natural state. Some researchers have found that the relatively large, non-homogenized milk-fat globules bind much more readily with the nutrients (like vitamins A & D) found in the liquid portion of milk. The nutrient-carrying globules travel to the stomach and gut where they release the nutrients for use by the body.
Milk fat, in its natural state, can make its way through the human digestive tract. Some people who are lactose intolerant tell us they are able to drink our milk without problems.

The milk should last at least 2 weeks after you receive it. There will be a best by date on every jug to help guide you.
Yes, you can freeze milk for up to a year! This allows you to never run out of milk.
