SANDSPUR FARMS + OCHEESEE CREAMERY
Thanks Jennifer of SANDSPUR Farms for Teaming Up with Ocheesee Creamery to deliver Local, Grass Fed Milk & Milk Products to Market At Dothan! The following information is from Ocheesee’s website:
" We’re a small, three-generation dairy in Calhoun County, Florida, and we’re bringing back the healthy goodness of whole milk and other dairy items. When you taste the difference and see the healthy benefits of milk items that come from grass-happy cows, you’ll be enjoying whole milk items again and will know that you’ve made the healthy choice. That’s right, we’re stepping back to a time when cows grazed on pasture land, like it used to be, and they got all the benefits of the fresh air, the sunlight, and pastures full of fresh green grass. Studies show that cows that are allowed a primary diet of fresh grass produce milk with five times as much unsaturated fat than cows fed processed grains. That’s really good news for people who want the benefits of whole milk but need to reduce their “bad” cholesterol counts. Most dairy items in the U.S. come almost exclusively from cows that are fed hay and grains from feed lots, and so whole milk has gotten a bad reputation due to the saturated fat and cholesterol levels. According to Michelle McGuire, associate professor at Washington State University, “Whole milk is not the villain!”
In addition to the dairy items you would expect, we offer an item you don’t find just everywhere; pasteurized, non-homogenized cream-top milk, which is a hands-down favorite of our guests and our regular customers as well. We are also the only dairy in the state that makes our own butter.
We choose to deliver our milk items in recyclable glass bottles for several reasons:
milk tastes better in glass,
glass is better for the environment, and because it is nostalgic. Many older people enjoy our items because it reminds them of their growing-up days when milk in glass bottles was the norm"
