Why Grass-Fed Organic Milk Stands Out

When it comes to milk, the diet of the cows makes all the difference. Research, such as "The Grass-Fed Milk Story: Understanding the Impact of Pasture Feeding on the Composition and Quality of Bovine Milk" by Alothman et al., highlights the remarkable benefits of grass-fed milk.

Grass-fed cows produce milk rich in omega-3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and vaccenic acid—all nutrients linked to heart health and reduced inflammation. Importantly, grass-fed milk has a more favorable omega-6 to omega-3 ratio compared to milk from cows fed on total mixed rations (TMR). This means grass-fed milk aligns with the nutritional preferences of health-conscious consumers.

Not only is grass-fed milk packed with nutrients, but it also offers unmatched sensory qualities. The beta-carotene found in pasture gives butter and cheese made from grass-fed milk a natural golden hue and a creamy texture. The study underscores the connection between sustainable farming practices and improved milk composition, proving that a cow's natural diet directly impacts the milk we enjoy.

At Brown's, our commitment to grass-fed farming ensures that you receive milk that is not only better for you but also better for the environment. Choose natural, choose nutritious—choose grass-fed!
