Here are a few pictures we snapped of Swissland Acres, a sustainably managed farm near Glen Rock, PA. Jenny Shearer and daughter Brea told us about their approach to raising animals as nature intended. Their healthy animals produce healthy food.
Swissland Acres is one of the few places you can get raw cows milk. It is also one of the few places around where you can get milk from pastured cows. In fact, they have a mobile milking parlor and they milk the cows right in the field. Even "organic milk" may be produced in industrial dairies. In industrial dairies, cows are penned in barns their whole lives and never taste fresh grass. As long as the cows are fed organic substances (most often grains) and hormones are not used, the government considers them organic. You should see the difference between Swissland Acres milk and store-bought organic. The milk is a rich, creamy ivory. (I bet you didn't know that cream from naturally raised animals IS actually cream colored!)
Swissland Acres also offers grass fed beef, veal and lamb, pastured chickens and turkeys. They are a local resource worth supporting!
