Happy-almost-Thanksgiving! We wanted to share our gratitude for you before the hustle and bustle of Thanksgiving is here.  

 Thank you for being here – for being a part of the Creambrook Family. Thank you for your enjoyment of raw milk, your appreciation for farmers, and for reading the weekly Farm Letters. 

Hi friend! Can you believe that Thanksgiving is just two weeks away?  

Ben and I were just saying how fast the Fall season is flying by. November is here for real. It was 20 F yesterday morning with a real feel temp of 9 F! The leaves are mostly gone, we are knee deep in farm maintenance projects, and the to-do list before Thanksgiving feels big. :) 

Hi friend! If you are a herd share member and wondering how to place orders for add-on services, this post is for you!

Herd share members with an active weekly raw milk subscription can place pre-orders for our add-on services.

Many of you have asked how to separate the delicious raw cream from your herd share cartons, and I'm sharing 4 ways + best tips to separate cream! 

Happy Friday! Whew, what a week! On Tuesday, we put in a 21 hour day and renovated our milking parlor (again). If you have been with us a while, you'll remember that we built a Swing 20 New Zealand style milking parlor in 2021. That parlor replaced our original 6 stanchion parlor that we started with in 2017. 

This recipe is a family favorite! The boys love to eat them warm served with butter. A dozen muffins goes FAST around here!

As our family routines shift from full summer days to the rhythm of back to school, I am finding myself writing lists for our go-to breakfasts. 

I realize it’s still August…however, it was in the 40’s (!!) yesterday morning which has me thinking about hot coffee and all of the Autumn flavors that we love, so I’m bringing back on old blog post that was published a few Decembers ago. Enjoy! :)

On Friday, a fellow farmer brought his equipment and manure spreader to spread composted manure onto the fields.

It took most of the day, as it was a big compost pile we had been building, and it felt great to see what some call “waste” that we view as nutrients being added to the soil life on our farm!

New to raw milk? Here are the top FAQ's! 

 Q. What does raw milk taste like?

A. Creambrook's high quality, wholesome raw milk is sweet and creamy.  We work very hard to keep the cows on pastures and forages that make delicious milk and has consistently amazing flavor. No onions for the cows to get into here ;) And each farm's raw milk has a unique flavor!
