Order through the online store for home delivery, call at the farm store, or visit on Saturday morning.
Little Captain Creek FarmRaw milk, meat & eggs · Thurmont4.9 (11 reviews)Little Captain Creek Farm at Thurmont, Maryland is run by Stephen and Elizabeth Stoltzfus, fourth generation Amish farmers and the first in their family to farm regeneratively. They moved from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in 2022 and have poured their energy into reviving a run down farm's soil ever since. The herd of 50 milking cows is 100% grass fed and rotationally grazed, moved to a fresh strip of grass two to four times a day, and most heifer calves stay on their mothers until four months old.
Through a private buying club and a self serve farm store the family sells A2/A2 raw cow dairy, raw sheep dairy, 100% grass fed and finished beef and lamb, pastured pork raised on raw skim milk and non GMO grain, corn free and soy free chicken, eggs and turkeys, plus kombucha, kefir, ice cream and fresh sourdough.

Hensing's Hilltop AcresRaw milk & meat · Woodbine5 (10 reviews)Hensing's Hilltop Acres is a 50 acre family farm in Woodbine, Maryland. The Hensing family moved to Maryland in July 2010 and started the farm that year. It began with one Jersey cow bought so the family would have raw milk of their own, and by Kelly Hensing's own account everything else followed from there. They own and operate the land, pasture their cows, pigs, chickens and ducks on it, and sell what they raise direct: by online order, at their farmers markets, or by pickup at the farm.
Their beef calves stay on their mothers for four to six months, then eat only grass and hay, and are finished on an alfalfa mix with never any grain. The dairy is a small herd of A2 Jersey cows, and the milk from them is sold in Maryland labelled as pet milk. The pigs are kept outside on the farm, offered a non GMO grain mix but happiest chewing the greens they find in their field, and are never confined in a barn the way commercial pigs are. The chickens and ducks run free and are never caged, watched over by four livestock guardian dogs, and fed a grain mix that contains no soy and no GMOs.
The Guernsey DepotRaw milk, meat & eggs · Chestertown4.6 (8 reviews)The Guernsey Depot is the farm store of Dogwood Lane Dairy, a family Guernsey dairy in Worton, Maryland, where the family has been milking cows since 1923. John Christian started with Guernsey cows and the herd today descends from those originals. The small, 100 percent registered Guernsey herd was certified fully A2A2 in late 2022, and the cows are pasture kept around the clock with bedded sheds for comfort. All of their feed is grown on the farm, with hay, silage and a little home grown grain carrying them through winter when the grass goes dormant.
Third generation farmers John and Kathy Myers and their sons direct market the golden Guernsey produce through the Depot, weekly home delivery across Kent, Queen Anne's and Talbot counties, and farmers markets in Maryland and Washington DC. The range covers more than 15 varieties of cheese including raw aged cheese, golden A2A2 butter, chicken and duck eggs, pasture kept beef, milk and tallow soaps, and freeze dried treats for dogs. The store opens Fridays and Saturdays, and farm visits are by appointment only for biosecurity.
The Farm at Thorne GutRaw milk · Nanjemoy5 (5 reviews)The Farm at Thorne Gut is a family farm at Nanjemoy, Maryland, going since 2016. It is a state licensed micro dairy producing raw milk from its own Jersey cows and from a growing ADGA herd of Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats. The cows live on seasonal pasture with free access to grass hay, and are fed twice a day on alfalfa, beet pulp, whole oats, sunflower seeds and supplemental grain. The goats live the same way, on seasonal pasture with grass hay and twice daily alfalfa and dairy goat feed. The farm uses no antibiotics and no hormones, machine milks, and runs a four stage cleaning process on the equipment.
Milk comes in half gallon bottles with the cream left in, so you get the whole product. Maryland only allows raw milk to be sold as pet milk, and the farm says so plainly on its own page. You can collect at the farm by appointment, at Raw Juice Market on Crain Highway in White Plains, at the La Plata Farmers Market from April to November, and at the Winter Wellness Mini-Market in White Plains from December to March. Alongside the milk they breed Nigerian Dwarf kids, milk tested since spring 2025 and tested clean for CAE, CL and Johne's in August 2025, and they raise rare breed poultry, offering Cochin, Silkie, Satin, Ayam Cemani and peafowl chicks with hatching eggs in spring.
Prosperity AcresRaw milk & meat · Sunderland4 (6 reviews)Prosperity Acres is a family farm in Sunderland, in Southern Maryland, run by Mary and Jacob Bowen. The farm raises beef cattle that roam freely on pasture, feasting on nutrient rich grass, alongside goats and lambs for meat. Everything is sold direct, through the farm's online store, deliveries and local farmers markets, where Mary's booth is a fixture.
The goats are milked twice daily, every 12 hours, and the family drinks the milk themselves for its freshness. Under Maryland law the raw goat milk is sold and labeled strictly as pet milk, not for human consumption, and it goes out fresh for dogs, cats and working animals. The farm also runs a farm animal science camp where children aged 6 to 12 get hands on with the animals. Faith and stewardship sit at the centre of how the Bowens describe their farming.
Pleasant Valley Goat CreameryRaw milkPleasant Valley Goat Creamery is a small two person farm at Knoxville in Maryland producing fresh goat milk. The goats graze on grass through the warmer months, topped up with locally sourced hay and grains, and the same two pairs of hands handle every part of the farm, from daily care of the herd to the milking.
The milk is valued for its digestibility, especially for pets. There are no set opening hours, so contact the farm to arrange a pickup.Rebuilding the food system, from the farm up
