Farm Store - A veritable "farmers market" with clean and healthy products from a netork of local South Carolina farmers: Pasture raised and grass fed Milk and dairy products from Happy cow Creamery, beef, lamb, chicken, organically grown vegetables, hand made products, wool yarnsand knit items, jewelry seasonal items and more! Open Tuesday-Thursday, 3:00 - 6:00PM and Friday and Saturday from 10:00AM - 6:00PM. Other times are available by appointment.
Our meat, dairy products and eggs are from pasture raised and grass fed livestock free of added hormones and antibiotics. Meat and dairy products are processed at government inspected facilities, then safely packaged and transported to ensure maximum nutrition, safety and freshness for local families. There is substantial research documenting the health benefits from grass fed dairy and meat products with significantly higher levels of Omega-3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), beta-carotene, vitamin E, and folic acid. Among other benefits, CLA which seems to come only from animals consuming green grasses, has been proven to inhibit tumor growth while it also seems to elevate HDL (good cholesterol) and suppress LDL (bad cholesterol). It is important to remember that while the fats in pasture raised products are truly beneficial, they should be part of an overall healthy & balanced diet and consumed in moderation.
Happy Cow Creamery Milk: www.happycowcreamery.com
Whole white, chocolate, and buttermilk. Happy Cow milk from truly grass fed cows is a blessing for our good health. Whatever is true for products from grass fed animals is reported to be even truer from the dairy products. In addition, Happy Cow milk is low temperature pasteurized leaving many of the beneficial enzymes and is not homogenized leaving all that healthy beneficial “grass fat.” Quite a few customers who previously thought they were lactose intolerant report the milk causes them no problems. In addition to the wonderful taste, this milk recently tested higher in nutrients than the previously highest rated grass fed organic dairy in the United States!
