How Long Does Raw Dairy Last?

Alright! Raw Dairy Products like it cold, so the colder it is the longer it lasts!

For all Raw Dairy if it goes beyond the suggested times below, it still stays safe, but the taste is most times not as good. (But if you can take the taste, it is safe.)

Important note: If the milk gets warm at any time, it will turn sour quicker. So for best results keep all dairy cold at all times.

Milk: If the milk stays around 35 Degrees it should stay good for around 10-14 days. If it is around 39 degrees it may just stay good for 8-12 days.

Cream: Should last around 14 days, then will turn into a delicious Sour Cream.

Butter: Can last 3-6 weeks in the Fridge. Can last 4-7 days unrefrigerated. Or can be frozen for 2-5 Months.

Kefir, Buttermilk, and Yogurt: Should taste fresh for 14 days, then will slowly start getting stronger after that. (Should have a good flavor for up to 20+ days.)

Cheese: Should stay good unopened and refrigerated for 1-2 Months. Then once opened lasts long but may get a harmless mold if not used much, but just scrape that harmless mold off, and the rest is totally fine!
(Certain cheeses create a mold that is safe to eat, and is actually very healthy!)

Colostrum: Arrives to you Frozen, and can be kept frozen for up to 2 months. Then once defrosted I suggest use within 7 days.

Again, for Raw Dairy Products that are produced right, they don't exactly go bad, but may naturally turn sour after certain periods of time.

Can I Freeze Milk? Yes, Freezing foods does loose some nutrients, but if you can't pick-up the food every month, you can freeze for as long as 1-2 months or more.

When freezing Milk, always be aware that it will expand, so use a Plastic Jugs and don't make the jug full. (If frozen in Glass bottles, it will break Glass. And when the bottle if full it will pop the Lid off.)

If you like Milk from glass bottles but want to avoid the expensive Glass Jar cost, you can order milk in plastic then transfer to your saved Glass Jars as soon as you get it!

Free Home Remedies from the Amish

Amish Home Remedies From Our Farmhouse | CWH Ministry Growing up on a fourth-generation Amish farm in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, I never once saw a medicine cabinet full of store-bought pills. What I saw instead was my Mom — quiet, unhurried, and utterly confident — reaching for what the land and the kitchen already provided. These remedies aren't things she read in a book. They were passed down from her father, and his grandparents before him. I'm sharing them with you because they've blessed our family, and I believe they can bless yours too. Remedy No. 1 Mattie's Recipe for Flus, Colds & Immune Building This is my Mom's go-to at the very first sign of a flu coming on. It's warming, soothing — and honestly, it tastes so good you'll want it even when you're feeling fine. You'll Need 1 whole lemon — sliced, rind and all — in a quart jar or mug 1 tablespoon raw honey 2 drops Thieves Essential Oil (we use Young Living, or any immune-boosting oil) 2 drops Oregano Oil How to Make It Place the sliced lemon (with rind) into your jar or mug. Add the raw honey, Thieves oil, and oregano oil. Fill to the top with boiling water. Let steep for at least 30 minutes. Sip slowly while you work — or wrap up in a blanket and rest. Farmhouse Tip: The longer it steeps, the stronger and more effective it becomes. Don't rush it — good things take time on the farm. From Our Farmhouse to Yours These remedies aren't complicated. They don't come with a long list of ingredients or a big price tag. They come from something simpler — generations of people who paid attention, who cared for each other, and who trusted what the land provided. My Mom still uses every one of these. I hope they serve your family as well as they've served ours.

What Does a Morning look like at the Farm?

A morning on the Farm reminds me of what the phrase from the Bible in Lamentations: "Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness."
