Ever wonder why some milk has a richer cream top than others? It all comes down to the cows’ diet and the seasons. At Straus Family Creamery, we work with supplying dairy farms that primarily favor Jersey cows for their naturally high milk fat content, which gives us that delicious cream top. What the cows eat plays a huge role in milk quality: when they graze on fresh pasture during spring and summer, their diet of lush grasses and clover increases the healthy fats in their milk, resulting in a creamier texture. During the cooler months, their diet shifts, affecting the milk’s fat profile again. Each bottle of of our organic milk reflects these seasonal changes, plus the care and environment of our local family farms. #creamtop #organicmilk #grassfed #strausfamilycreamery
