HR HERDSHARE FAQ

  • Why can't I just buy raw goat milk directly?
    In many states, the sale of raw milk is restricted. A herdshare arrangement provides a legal way for you to obtain raw goat milk by owning a portion of the herd.
  • What are the benefits of drinking raw goat milk?
    Raw goat milk is rich in vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that are beneficial for digestion, skin health, and overall wellness. Many people find it easier to digest than cow's milk.
  • Can I cancel my herdshare membership?
    Yes, you can cancel your membership at any time. Please provide us with at least 30 days' notice so we can process your request and adjust our herd management.
  • What is a herdshare?
    A herdshare is a legal arrangement where you purchase a share of a herd of goats. As a shareholder, you are entitled to a portion of the milk produced by the herd. This allows you to obtain raw goat milk directly from our farm.
  • Do you offer tours of your farm?
    Yes, we love showing our customers where their milk comes from! Contact us to schedule a farm tour and meet the goats.
  • What if I can't pick up my milk one week?
    If you can't pick up your milk, please notify us in advance. We can hold your milk for a short time, but due to its perishable nature, we recommend making arrangements to pick it up as soon as possible.
  • How often can I pick up my milk?
    Milk is available for pick-up on a weekly basis. We'll work with you to schedule a convenient pick-up time.
  • What other products do you offer?
    In addition to raw goat milk, we occasionally offer other farm products such as cheese, eggs and yogurt. Please check with us for availability.
  • How is the milk stored and packaged?
    Our raw goat milk is bottled in glass jars to preserve its freshness and quality. We recommend storing it in the refrigerator and consuming it within a week for the best taste.
  • How do I become a member of HR Herdshare?
    Joining is simple! You purchase a share of our goat herd, sign an agreement, and then receive your portion of milk based on your share. Contact us to get started!
  • Why a contract?
    A contract ensures that both parties understand their responsibilities and rights within the herd share agreement. It provides clarity and peace of mind, helping to maintain a smooth and transparent relationship. As a member of the Farm to Consumer Defense Fund, we are committed to protecting the rights of small farmers and consumers alike. This contract is a key part of that commitment, ensuring that your investment in our herd is secure and that we continue to operate within the best legal practices.
