Why butter is the most important cookie ingredient... and quality does matter!
I’ve come to realize that a huge part of cookie success comes down to butter! The quality and handling of butter can make or break a cookie recipe, even one that’s tried and true. Butter gives flavor, tenderness, and flaky layers to baked goods. It has a little liquid, which contributes to structure and rise. And, butter can enhance or inhibit gluten development, which in turn affects the shape, spread and texture of a cookie. Here are some top cookie/butter questions answered.
Fermented raw A2/A2 milk can boost your pet's health. Here's 7 reasons why!
If you’re reading this, then you likely provide your family with the healthiest, most nutritious foods you can… and that should include the furry members of your family, too! Cats are carnivores, and dogs are omnivores. But, both are mammals. This means that, just like humans, they started their lives drinking raw milk. Ever have your pet (at least try to) lap milk up from your glass? I have! And, it seems that there’s a good reason for that innate desire.
The healthy history of eggnog plus a quick & easy recipe
Eggnog is an old fashioned drink, a very old fashioned drink. It was originally used as a health tonic, but was transformed into a fancy holiday drink a few hundred years ago. Buying eggnog from a store can be tricky due to questionable ingredients or processes. Luckily, it's quick and easy to make at home with healthy farm-direct ingredients!
Giving non-consumerist holiday gifts to save the world
Whether you buy gifts for many people or a few, gift giving can be pretty nerve-wracking.... at least it is for me! Non-consumerist (or anti-consumerist) gifts support the idea that one shouldn't be continually buying and consuming material possessions. We buy what we need, and that’s it. I break down non-consumerist gifts into two basic categories: experience and food. Here are a bunch of suggestions for each:

8 reasons we're in love with our new meat processor
So much care and attention goes into every little detail of our farming practices. Our goal is to provide you with the most natural, most nutritious, and most delicious food. Although we have full control on the farm, once an animal goes to the processor, it’s out of our hands. We don’t want an “ok” or “good” processor. We want an “awesome” processor, one that holds the highest standards, just like we do on the farm. We had given up hope and were working with the best options available. Then… something miraculous happened...
What is Naked Bacon and why would you want it?
There’s just something about bacon. I mean, I don’t know many people who eat pork and don’t love bacon. It’s meaty and savory. It’s salty and sweet. It packs a ton of umami (a Japanese word that loosely translates to “deliciousness”). But, here’s the problem with bacon - the often awful ingredients! Thankfully, Miller’s has a solution for you, and it’s called Naked Bacon!
Inflation. Ugh. What does this mean for your food and prices?
As we all well know, inflation is here and is likely to get worse. Ugh. This has kind of crept up on the farm. It’s been slow but is definitely real. This means that our prices will be going up. This has already happened a little bit in certain collections and will likely continue for as long as inflation continues.
"It's proprietary," they sadly say. "You don't have the right to know."
There are days of astonishment, when we get something back from the processor and we’re surprised to see an ingredient like “spice extractive” or “organic herbs” on the label. What does that mean!? Most of the time, our processors are awesome and simply let us know. Then, we update the product on the website with accurate info. But once in a while, we are sorely disappointed. Sometimes we get the answer, “It’s proprietary.”
OUR MISSION is to be an amazing and reliable source for farm direct, nutrient dense food.
OUR VISION is to end sickness by enhancing health, nutrition, and happiness.
OUR PURPOSE is to inspire a generation of healthy children and reduce healthcare costs.
