BAD Farm

The family milks around 65 Holstein cows, farms about 600 acres of cropland and has held a Pennsylvania raw milk permit since 2009. Raw milk started it all, and the dairy now makes raw milk aged cheeses, yogurts, smoothies, butter, cottage cheese, mozzarella, curds and ice cream, with a pasteurised whole milk line sold alongside the raw.

A flock of 200 Rhode Island Red hens is raised cage free for brown eggs, and the farm raises Holstein steers for beef, pigs bought in as weaned piglets from a neighbouring farm, and a Polypay and Texel cross sheep flock. Everything is sold from the self service farm store on the farm, open 6am to 8pm every day, cash or check only, along with baked goods and prepared meals made with the farm's own milk, eggs and beef.
