Local Milk Delivery, Wethersfield CT
When you buy milk in the store, you have to rely on the stamped date to determine the freshness and quality of the product. But you might wonder just how fresh this dairy actually is – especially considering it has to be transferred from the farm to the store, and there’s no telling just how long that process takes or how long the product has sat on the shelf. Your milk might be several days old (or longer) by the time it reaches your refrigerator. If you want the freshest dairy products, consider The Modern Milkman for weekly milk and dairy delivery services in Wethersfield.
How We Can Guarantee Freshness and Quality
Quality milk comes from happy cows! We make sure our cows are happy by providing them with a plentiful supply of home-grown food and water. The diet of dairy cows absolutely affects the quality of their milk. That’s why we make sure to pick up any leftover, old food and replace it with a fresh feed. Our cows also have continuous access to water to ensure they are always hydrated and healthy.
Our eight-acre barn houses the whole herd in an open-stall configuration. The cows can freely move around the spacious barn, which allows them to socialize, sleep, and prevents the stress of tight spaces. Our cows even know when it’s time for milking! They come into the milking stalls freely and return to their open stalls when finished to eat and relax.
Additionally, we have a separate nursery barn for cows ready to calve and a hospital barn for sick or injured cows, so they don’t have to worry about getting jostled around by the herd. Once they recover, they can then rejoin their herd.
By feeding our cows fresh-grown food and allowing them to roam, they produce a higher quality of milk. To keep their milk fresh, we run our delivery routes as soon as it is pasteurized and bottled so our milk never sees shelf or storage time.
