Yes, this product is legitimately certified as pet food! It's government approved for pet food only!

Why? Well, raw milk is regulated like marijuana, state by state. And sadly, we can't send our raw goat milk labeled for humans outside of Pennsylvania. Gee, if we could get our raw goat milk certified for humans everywhere in the US, we sure would! 

Plus -- raw goat milk can not only be a great addition to your diet but your pet's diet, too! They'll love lapping our milk on its own in a bowl. You can also add it to their regular food, pouring it on top of kibble or wet food.

*Dairy shouldn't be a staple food for cats and dogs. Being carnivores (or nearly carnivores), raw meat is their essential food. Use dairy as a treat or mix in with their other food for a limited period. It's a great source of moisture and probiotics!

After you receive it, our raw milk should last about 2 weeks in the fridge until it becomes too sour to palate. Every jug comes with a best by date on the cap to help guide you. But, of course, once it's opened there are so many variables that can affect shelf life (contaminants getting in, etc).

Yes, raw milk can be frozen. We recommend freezing it when very fresh, just after you receive it. We also recommend freezing for no more than 6 months (the longer it's frozen, the more probiotic loss). One last thing to keep in mind is that some may notice a change in flavor when thawed. So it's always good to so a small test before committing to freezing in bulk.

There's nothing better than a tall glass of cold milk, right? But, beyond drinking, milk has so many uses! Make chocolate milk or hot chocolate. Pour it over granola. Make a cream sauce or creamy soup. Or, use it for baking.

Another option is to level up your dairy game and make your own dairy products at home. With our non-homogenized milk, you can separate the cream and then make whipped cream or ice cream. Or, you can ferment it into yogurt, kefir, or cheese!

What are your milk safety standards?
Milk safety is a top priority. Although it's not required for raw pet milk, Creekside Organic Acres is certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture for raw milk production and bottling for humans in PA. They also go above and beyond what's "required" for that certification by testing every batch of milk on site for general bacteria counts.

Will the cream rise to the top?
Nope. Goat milk is naturally homogenized. It contains smaller fat globules that remain distributed rather than floating to the top (like with cow milk).

What's the fat content?
Our goat milk contains about 3.5% fat and has a rich consistency.

What breed are your goats?
Our milking goats are crosses between Alpine, Saanen, and Nubian goats.

What are the goats fed?
The goats have free access to pasture year round. However, in the hot summer, they usually choose to stay in the barn. When they're not eating forage at pasture, they are fed a GMO-free, corn-free, soy-free, and chemical-free feed from a farmer that raises and mixes the grains himself. Feed contains barley, oats, peas, alfalfa, and minerals.

Is your goat milk A2/A2?
Yes! All goats naturally produce A2/A2 milk. This is because goats (and all mammals) did not undergo a genetic mutation like cows do.

Does all of your goat milk come from one farm?
Yes, all goat milk comes from Creekside Organic Acres.

Our raw milk is made simply and is never heated or altered in any way. Here's how we do it:
1. The cows are milked using old fashioned pneumatic milkers. 
2. The milk is poured into the bulk tank to cool down quickly.
3. We bottle the milk to order the day before or the day we pack it for you.
+
The milk is packaged in HDPE plastic, which is the most environmentally stable of all plastics. It does not contain BPA, phthalates, heavy metals, harmful fumes, or allergens. But all plastic has the potential to leach chemicals.
