n this story, we learn all about how grass-fed milk is produced at Woodbourne Creamery in Mount Airy. Understanding grass-fed milk production is important because factors such as these can cause differences in milk coloration, omega3 fatty acid production, and fat content. Positive impact can also be seen in both the cows and farmland as Farmer John Frederick can attest. He uses a system called “Managed Intensive Grazing” which relies on an organized approach that divides the pasture into sections, so each patch iis given ample time to recover after the cows graze it. When travelling between these particular pastures, cows pass through a robotic milking station. Modern day farming technology allows for cows to be milked, fed supplemental feed, and cataloged with ease so that they may enter newer grassy areas and continue grazing.
