Orders are placed through the farm's online store for collection, and farm tours can be arranged if you would like to see the cows and how the place runs. The farm is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 4pm and Saturday, 9am to 2pm, closed on Sunday.

May have been just off the highway, the original Pony Express 10 min down the road called us first. Very cool sight to see. Then off to the long dirt roads to find the Milk House (the owners do note the dirt, and how it can be messy and muddy if it has rained) Thursday eve stop thru, at 5 pm. Quiet. Long dirt roads to get there. Small town, minimal signage or points to go by if you drive w RV Life app. Pay attention. We hoped to have petting animal time and ice cream served, instead it was a well kept large working shed, Self serve, pay via cash or Venmo for goods. (We did arrive after hours) Few different flavored ice creams, cheese curds, many flavors of coffee creamer. Milk, eggs, sour cream available for purchase too. The hazelnut coffee creamer is so good! We enjoyed the snickers ice cream. The milk and ice cream fresh def have a different texture than what the big stores sell. It was a pleasant change! The kids got into it! We enjoyed viewing the horses that were peacefully in their pen. Found the chickens in their pens in the back. Besides that, the animals were not around at this time to be able to enjoy the “petting zoo”, maybe on the weekends or if we had booked a reservation to stay the night we would have had that chance.
