Deck Family Farm sells their Creamy Cow dairy products to members of the Full Farm CSA (FFCSA). In addition to raw dairy, the FFCSA sells a complete range of products including beef, pork, chicken, lamb, eggs, fruit, vegetables, canned goods, baked goods, and dry goods. All products are produced within 40 miles of Deck Family Farm. Seventy percent of what they sell was grown and raised on Deck Family Farm.
Deck Family Farm has been milking dairy cows since 2006 and their raw cow milk, butter, sour cream, and cheeses have been a staple of the CSA since they began delivering CSA products in 2017. The herdshare agreement means that each member owns a portion of a cow, and in turn, Creamy Cow, LLC performs a milking service (see website for herdshare and agistment agreements).
The $50 CSA membership fee includes financial support for the dairy herd, which allows members to purchase milk produced by the herd. Value added dairy products and bottling are charged a service fee.
Members elect to consume raw milk products under their own understanding and advisement and are self-educated in all of the risks and benefits of consuming raw milk products. Creamy Cow, LLC regularly tests milk (records available upon request) and maintains a sanitary facility with modern milking equipment to cool the product.
