CheeseShare

Cheese from Green Pastures Dairy

Fresh Earth Farms is proud to offer our members delicious, nutritious, raw milk dairy products from Green Pastures Dairy and Castle Rock Organic Farms

Raw milk cheese provides numerous health benefits including easier digestion of lactose, increased absorption of calcium and a reduction of allergies.  Milk from grass-fed cows provides additional benefits including increased Conjugated Linoleic Acid to help ward off cancer and higher amounts of omega-3 fatty acids.  It also is lower in LDL cholesterol.  Cheese from Green Pastures Dairy and Castle Rock Organic Farms cheese provides all these benefits together with fabulous flavors and textures!
