It’s going to be a great few months for all the dairy farmers out there! Milk prices have reached the highest price I have seen in the 15 years I have followed the market.
For home delivery it hurts our bottom line – but we are going to hold the current price for at least a few months or more (if it does not continue to rise).
The forecasts do predict the price will level off or decrease slightly towards September and October and reduce back to a more typical range in November and December (baased off 2020). The price shown above is for a CWT of milk – meaning 100 lbs of milk straight from the cow.
This is how fluid milk is purchased and then turned into the products you love and enjoy.
Part of the reason we are able to hold the prices on our milk is because so many of our customers are buying additional products (like bread, eggs, pies etc. – we currently carry 200+ products!).
We hope if you haven’t taken a gander at our products in awhile that you will take another look at some of our additional local products requested by customers. You can find them here : Products.
Just this year in 2021 we brought on new vendors/products :
- Beehive Meals
- Park City Creamery Cheese
- Creminelli Charcuterie Meats
- Gold Creek Cheese
- Mini Pies by Grapefruit & Thyme
- Gossner Flavored Milks – plus more!
Another way we keep prices lower is with customer referrals. Refer your friends and family for our special promo pricing – most of our growth is through customer referrals!
Refer a Friend Promo Offer: you and the person you refer get a discount on regular white milk for 5 weeks for each person you refer (this includes our new creamline whole milk!).
With our new warehouse and cooler we have a huge capacity for growth and as we continue to grow we plan on expanding the products we offer. This includes fresh local produce, artisan crusty breads/pastries and butcher shop cuts of beef, chicken, pork and more.
We appreciate you and your family (and friends) for being our customers!
