Our 2% milk contains 10 grams of protein per serving – which is 25% more protein than other 2% milks on the market (which contain 8% protein per serving.) We use a “low and slow” heating method when preparing our milk to harness all of the delicious flavor in pasture-raised cow’s milk. Our cool, coastal climate provides green grass 365 days a year – a constant source of nourishment for our unique blend of crossbreed cows, and results in milk with higher Omega 3s and CLA’s (conjugated linoleic acids).
This milk comes from cows that consume 80% of their diet from forage and 20% from a certified organic and certified non-GMO grain blend that includes corn and barley (no soy).
Vitamin A fortification in reduced fat milk is required by the FDA because whole milk contains some vitamin A palmitate: however, vitamin A levels in 2% milk are much lower because the vitamin A palmitate is fat soluble and is removed with the fat when you reduce it. Therefore, the FDA requires that the Vit A be replaced.
