Engedi Farms
Shelbyville · Fruit & veg, raw milk5.0 · 4 reviewsEngedi Farms is the Visser family's farmstead on twelve acres in Shelbyville, West Michigan. What began as a homestead with a small flock of laying hens in 2017 now produces vegetables, poultry, pork, beef, dairy and eggs. The dairy herd is purebred Jersey and Guernsey, rotationally grazed from May to November on pastures of alfalfa, timothy, clover and orchard grass that have never seen chemical fertiliser, and fed local hay through the winter. Raw milk is shared through a herdshare: owners buy into the herd and collect a gallon per share each week, though shares are currently full. Antibiotics are used only if truly needed, with owners informed and milk withheld. The market garden is grown no dig, with compost fed beds, no chemicals ever and certified organic seed where possible, supplying seasonal produce, microgreens and sourdough to the surrounding communities.
Heart's Pasture Farm
Alanson · Fruit & veg, raw milkHeart's Pasture Farm is a small woodland family farm in Alanson, in northern Michigan, where Todd and Amanda Wolter and their two daughters farm on biodynamic, beyond organic principles: no chemical fertilisers, pesticides, fungicides, GMO seed or soy anywhere on the place. Their Nigerian Dwarf goats browse the mixed woods forest, eat unsprayed hay with a kelp and herb blend for minerals, and are milked by hand in the open air, the milk filtered and chilled promptly in glass half gallon jars. Raw goat milk is shared through a herdshare guaranteeing at least six months of milk each year, generally May through October. The farm also grows more than thirty varieties of specialty potatoes for a CSA, raises registered American Guinea Hogs for pork and piglets, teaches sourdough classes at its outdoor woodfired brick oven, and offers homestead consulting. Farm visits are by appointment only.
C & K Farms
Wolverine · Fruit & veg, raw milkC & K Farms is a family dairy at Wolverine in northern Michigan, started in 2021 by Carey and Katelyn Bragg. Both are third generation farmers from the area, and Katelyn's grandfather ran a small dairy in Boyne City for many years. They began with dairy goats and chickens, then went looking for an A2/A2 dairy cow because neither of them can digest A1 milk, and their first cow, Peanut Butter, arrived in 2024. The herd is still small enough that every cow has a name, and it supplies raw A2/A2 milk through a legal Michigan herdshare, with pickup at the farm in Wolverine and a second drop at Bragg Family Farm in Gaylord. Their cows are out on natural grass pasture as much as possible, get a mix of hay and silage when pasture is not available in winter, and are given non GMO grain at milking time along with free choice minerals. Carey and Katelyn are also reclaiming farmland that had been left to grow over for decades, and they say regenerative farming is how they work rather than a buzz word. In 2025 they added a market garden, and in season they grow green beans, peas, zucchini, summer squash, chives and tomatoes, along with strawberries, blueberries, raspberries and peaches. All of it is grown on the farm at Wolverine, never sprayed, and fed with natural fertilisers. They sell produce and eggs at the farm and from a stand at the Wolverine Farmers Market through the summer, from 4:30pm to 7:30pm, where they also hand out raw milk samples. An online shop is on the way.
The Good Shepherd Farmstead
Shepherd · Fruit & veg, raw milkThe Good Shepherd Farmstead is a family farmstead at Shepherd in central Michigan, run openly as a Christian family business. The family does all of its own planting, tending and harvesting with pure organic methods and no sprays or chemicals, and keeps a herd of registered Alpine dairy goats that it milks daily. They mill their own organic flour for the bread and scones they bake, make goat milk soap from the herd's milk, and have completed Penn State Extension's Dairy Goat Production and Management certification. They are current members of the American Dairy Goat Association. Raw goat milk is available only through herdshares, which is the way Michigan law allows it. A share costs 40 dollars a month for about half a gallon of milk a week, with a one time 20 dollar buy in and a refundable 10 dollar deposit on four quart jars, and the waitlist for the 2026 milking season is open. Share owners collect at the farmstead weekly, or at a limited number of drop off points in Mt Pleasant and Midland. Everything else is ordered online for collection, or bought at the Mount Pleasant Farmers Market on Thursdays and the Midland Farmers Market on Saturdays, where the table carries freshly milled bread, scones, goat milk soap and their own organic vegetables. Registered Alpine goat kids are sold as well.
