Nutritional Facts

Milk

• Contains up to 4 times more CLA's (Conjugated Linoleic Acids) than found in the milk of conventional fed cows.  CLA, a cancer fighting agent, is an essential fatty acid (found in the butter fat of milk) and is not produced by the human body.
   
• Has more balanced levels of Omega 6 and Omega 3
   
• Also contains an increased level of Beta-Carotene and Natural Vitamins A and D.

Happy Cows Milk Quality

• Happy Cow Creamery GUARANTEES our milk to be rBGH Free
  
  
• Non-confined, non-stressing (happy) grazing cows produce higher levels of CLA's (conjugated linoelic acid)
  
• Higher levels of Beta-carotene and natural vitamin D
   
• Milk travels only 48 feet and pumped one time in processing
   
• "Old timey" low-temp vat pasteurization which is more protective to the natural enzymes in milk compared to UHT milk.
   
• Our milk is NOT homogenized; cream rises to the top (homogenized milk-the fat cells are broken into small particles which can cause health problems)
   
• Our milk is kept cold, fresh and tasty (38 degrees or lower)
  
  
• Our milk was tested by the Utah State University
  

Cows

• Cows are grass fed
  
  
• Easy movement of cows from the barn to grazing pastures (over 5,000 feet of geo-textile roads)
  
  
• Natural shade and water provided in all 29 pastures
  
  
• Cows are not confined and are allowed to graze high quality forage
  
  
• No injections of growth hormone or fed antibiotics
  
  
• Easy management of cows while milking
  
  
• Cow health is more important than production

Farm and Soil

• Pastures are planted with forages which enrich the natural milk making process
  
  
• No chemicals on pastures
  
  
• No fertilizers on pastures except our natural compost
  
  
• Soil is rich in natural minerals (the earthworms and micro-organisms are alive and well)
  
  
• Soil samples call for NO inputs
  
  
• We believe in protecting the environment; soil, water, and air
  
  
• We use sustainable farming practices*
