❔️ What are the animals fed?
Milk cows are fed a baleage based diet (fermented hay to maximize nutrition and digestibility) along with vitamins and minerals to help balance their diet to maintain healthy, productive stock. The farmers work with local vets and nutritionists to ensure the optimal health of each individual animal.
The flock of chickens is allowed free range of the farm and can be found foraging around. They do receive corn, but are soy free.
💰 What does the money support?
The sale from any of the farm's products (milk, eggs, beef, lamb) allows them to continue to offer youth programming projects for a low cost, along with assisting in offsetting the costs of animal needs and care. Their youth projects, which they have offered since the 1970's, include include allowing youth to work directly with livestock (dairy and beef cattle) and giving them the opportunity to learn and develop lifelong skills when it comes to animal care and husbandry. In 2023 Chi-Lakes Cattle Co. served 12 youth from three counties and two states. Program included hands-on learning workshops with industry professionals, but also opportunities to attend several shows, including Chisago County Fair, Kanabec County Fair, two different Minnesota State Fair Livestock Encampments spanning over nine days and the Minnesota Beef Expo. This allowed the youth to showcase their hard work and knowledge to their peers and the public.

Whole, unskimmed, raw milk from a 3/4 jersey, 1/4 guernsey cow. They calf-share, so many times she is raising a calf and gives less cream. When her calf is old enough to be weaned, she gives up usually around a quart of cream on a gallon. So there are seasons where the milk may be different. You must provide your own glass gallon or half gallon jars and pick up at the ranch.

Raw milk from a herd of registered, show quality Saanen and Toggenburg dairy goats. Milk must be picked up at the farm. Fresh vegetables also available during the growing season as well as occasional eggs. Reader Comment: A reader spoke to the farmer and asked about how the goats are fed. The farmer said the goats get hay all year long as well as some feed which is mostly locally sourced, although the individual ingredients may not all be local, and he cannot confirm it is GMO-free. A few goats are fed organic grain. Please email the farm for more information. See other places where you can find products from this farm.
