Dairy Cow

Raised on pasture with rotational access and deep-bedded shelter during winter. The cow is milked for home use and her milk supports pig and chicken health during periods of high demand. Minimal infrastructure is used, and she integrates into the broader rotational system to enhance grazing and fertilization cycles.

We do not vaccinate and intervene only if necessary. Raw milk is handled carefully to prevent spoilage and preserve its probiotic properties. The cow is rotated with sheep or follows them to optimize pasture use. Her calf is raised naturally, and future breeding is focused on temperament and milk quality.

Main diet includes fresh pasture during warm seasons and dry hay in winter. Minimal organic grain is used to ensure healthy lactation. Supplements are provided as needed, and milk is shared across the farm for probiotic and calorie boosts, especially for pigs during cold months or for chickens in peak laying season.
