The milk is delivered in reusable glass bottles which are left in an insulated milk box, which can be purchased from us. Regular box is $40.00 which holds five half gallons plus extra products, large box is $50.00 which holds six half gallons plus extra products. The empty bottles are to be rinsed and placed in the milk box for pick up on the next delivery. Although we do not charge a bottle deposit we will charge the $2.00 deposit, which we are charged from the farm, if the bottles are not returned. The bottles are made of heavy glass and can break, so please use caution in handling them. We believe the milk tastes better from a glass bottle and it also keeps the milk colder with no plastic taste or crossover. They are also environmentally friendly.

Summer -- While the insulated milk boxes prevent milk from spoiling during the summer months it is wise to place the milk box in a shaded area and to remove and refrigerate the milk from the box as early as possible. Refrigeration should be set at 36 to 38 degrees to maintain a 10-12 day shelf life. Remember to rotate milk products in your refrigerator to reduce spoilage. FIFO = first one in, first one out! Shelf life is also extended by placing the bottles in the back of the refrigerator as opposed to the shelf on the door. Also, remember to rinse out your milk box on a regular basis to keep it clean.

Creamline milk is non-homogenized milk. It gets its name from the line that forms as the milk fat separates from the liquids as it sits in your refrigerator. The milk needs to be shaken before pouring to mix the milk fats back in. This is the least processed milk. Large dairy plants have been homogenizing milk for more than fifty years. The process began in earnest when dairy manufacturers stopped using glass bottles and switched to cardboard. Consumers could no longer see the cream line on the milk and when the cream flowed from the cardboard container, many consumers thought the milk was spoiled. Homogenization is a mechanical process which pulverizes the large butterfat globules and breaks them down to micron sized pieces.

Our milk is processed at the lowest temperature allowed by law (170 degrees) keeping it safe, but not over processed. Many brands of organic of milk are "ultra" pasteurized at high temperatures. This gives the milk a slightly longer shelf life, but destroys beneficial enzymes and good bacteria as well as altering the taste.
