Whipped Raw Creamery

Home / Whipped Raw Creamery

Experience Raw Texas Dairy. Learn about the breeding and raising of Jersey cows and Nigerian goats, the farmstead creamery process to craft cheeses using 100% milk from our own animals, and how we age cheese gracefully. Learn how the milking process works from our Dairy Managers. Play with the kids, shepherd our herd through a relaxing pasture walk, and get a behind-the-scenes tour of our goat operation.

​

Whipped Raw Creamery masterfully instills complex flavors into a variety of cheeses, blending old-world and old-west traditions. Using the finest quality milk from our herd of Alpine, Nubian, and Nigerian Dwarf cross goats, Whipped Raw Creamery is dedicated to creating superior taste through tried and true processes. We strive for happy goats and exceptional milk quality. Our fresh and lightly aged cheeses lack a strong “goaty” flavor due to special diets and gentle milk handling practices.

​

Our Family of Goats:

Nubians are our full-size goats with cute floppy ears and vocal personalities. They are well-known for cheese production due to the high butterfat content in their milk.

​

The Nigerian Dwarf crosses are miniature goats that produce the sweetest, richest milk of all dairy goats. Few commercial dairies raise them because they produce less milk, but we believe in quality over quantity. Their milk tastes like melted ice cream!

​

Our Core Values

We understand we aren't the only farm selling humane and regenerative meat and poultry online. However, we want you to understand how the dollars you spend on our farm impact the world you live in. If you're just getting to know us, allow us to introduce ourselves… pasture-raising 10 species of livestock, eggs, organic vegetables, honey, and more on our acres of land, in a radically traditional way.

 

Animal Welfare:

​

  • We provide our animals with a peaceful, healthy life, and we are also committed to offering them a humane and dignified death.

  • We raise our livestock in open pastures, allowing them to express their natural, instinctive animal behaviors. We believe farming must not only be sustainable, but it also has to be regenerative to rebuild our soil and mitigate climate change.

  • Our holistic planned grazing methods use animal impact to sequester carbon, control erosion, and increase the organic matter in our soils. We take full responsibility for raising our livestock, slaughtering and processing, and online order fulfillment on our farm, providing jobs for our community and ensuring we do business according to our values.

  • Each one of our farmers knows that raising flavorful, high-quality meat requires more than just expertise and hard work. It requires care, passion, and respect, and those values play a role in every part of our business. We make it a priority to do so responsibly. That’s why we follow the principles of the five freedoms for animal welfare and implement initiatives to minimize our environmental impact. When you buy from us, you’re not just buying delicious red meat—you’re buying into the humane treatment of livestock, sustainability, and a community of independent farmers.

​

Our Commitment to Sustainability:
  • We have a policy not to process any animals treated with growth hormones. Our operations abide by strict, company-wide animal welfare policies and practices and operate a humane slaughter program to ensure animals are free from stress.

  • We limit the transportation of animals to minimize their stress. To ensure that our meat products are of the highest quality, our cattle are raised in a good environment where they graze freely and are well taken care of.

​

Regeneration for Every Generation:
  • Our family aims to produce the cleanest and most delicious foods in a way that protects and enhances the soil, air, water, and the environment in which we live. We work hard to use all resources carefully and wisely and to farm systematically while integrating all aspects of our farming operations. We employ a whole systems approach and are proud of our efforts to educate others in the methods and possibilities of organic farming.

  • We’re committed to building relationships based on trust and treating all partners and employees with respect. We are proud of our efforts to sustain family farming and promote the preservation of quality farmland. Our family believes farming regeneratively is the key to helping protect our planet. We are firmly committed to following regenerative agriculture practices and helping others transition to do the same.

  • It’s our mission to take what we’ve learned from our family’s rich farming heritage and look to the future to help maintain a sustainable and healthy Earth for seven generations to come.

Pleiades Ranch Oasis Commitment
100% Grass-Fed (No Grain)

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we offer 100% grass-fed and grass-finished cattle, bison, and lamb. Our animals are raised on regenerative pastures, where they graze on a natural diet of grass and forage. We never supplement our ruminant animals' diets with grain of any kind. As a result, our meat is more nutritious, richer in flavor, and higher in beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. Our commitment to sustainable farming practices means that our animals are raised in a way that supports the natural ecosystem and promotes their well-being.

 

No Hormones or Steroids

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we’re committed to providing our customers with the highest quality meat that is both ethically raised and free from harmful additives. That's why we never administer hormones or steroids to our animals. While the FDA doesn’t allow the use of hormones or antibiotics in the production of pork or poultry, we take the extra step of ensuring all of our animals are raised without the use of synthetic growth promotants of any kind.

​

GMO & Antibiotic Free

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we understand that consumers today are more concerned than ever about the use of antibiotics, harmful additives, and genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food production. That's why we only produce meat that is 100% free of antibiotics and GMO-grains. We believe that the responsible use of antibiotics is important for both animal welfare and public health. We prioritize raising our animals in a stress-free environment, using animal husbandry practices that promote health and hardiness. We take pride in offering high-quality, ethically raised meat that is not only delicious and nutritious but also environmentally sustainable.

 

Pasture-Raised

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we’re committed to providing our customers with meat that is not only delicious but also ethically raised. That's why we pasture-raise our animals—they spend their lives with continuous access to regenerative pastures. Our chickens, egg-layer hens, and pigs are raised in a way that allows them to roam free and express their natural behaviors. They have year-round access to the outdoors, supplemented with non-GMO grains, which is the most appropriate diet for non-ruminant animals. Our commitment to sustainable farming practices ensures that our animals are raised in a way that supports the environment and promotes their well-being.

 

No Animal By-Products

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we believe in ensuring our customers get only the best quality products for their health. That’s why we don’t use any animal by-products in our non-ruminant animal feed for our pasture-raised pigs and ethically raised chickens. Additionally, our ruminant animals do not receive animal by-products as they get all the nutrition they need from grazing and foraging on regenerative pastures. Our commitment to providing meat that is both healthy and ethically raised ensures that our customers can enjoy high-quality meat while also supporting the environment and animal welfare.

 

MSG-Free

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we understand that many consumers are concerned about the health effects of consuming MSG, a common flavor enhancer. That's why we offer meat that’s MSG-free. Our commitment to providing meat that’s both ethically raised and free from harmful additives ensures that our customers can enjoy high-quality meat without compromising their health or values.

 

Nitrite/Nitrate Free

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we offer meat that is free from synthetic nitrites and nitrates. Our all-natural production process ensures that our meat is free from harmful additives and preservatives, including synthetic nitrates and nitrites. Choose Pleiades Ranch Oasis' nitrite/nitrate-free meat and experience the difference that ethical and sustainable farming practices can make.

 

Gluten & Dairy Free

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we offer a variety of gluten and dairy-free products that are both delicious and healthy. Our gluten and dairy-free products include everything from our smoked hams, breakfast sausages, bacon, and more. Choose Pleiades Ranch Oasis' gluten and dairy-free products and taste the difference that ethical and sustainable farming practices can make.

 

A2 Milk Proteins

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we offer dairy products that contain only A2 milk proteins. A2 milk proteins are a natural and healthier alternative to traditional dairy products. They contain a specific type of protein that’s easier to digest, making them a great choice for people who struggle with lactose intolerance or other digestive issues after consuming dairy. By choosing Pleiades Ranch Oasis' A2 milk protein products, you can enjoy the delicious taste of dairy without any of the negative side effects.

 

Sugar Free

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we offer a wide variety of sugar-free products for health-conscious consumers who want to avoid added sugars that can lead to health issues. Whether you're looking for chicken, beef, pork, or other meats, you can trust that our sugar-free options are both healthy and delicious.

Our meats are produced using only the highest-quality ingredients and are free from harmful additives and preservatives. Plus, with our wide variety of cuts and products, you can easily find the perfect meat for any meal or occasion.

 

Wild Caught, Never Farmed

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we only source wild-caught fish that have never been farmed. Our commitment to providing the highest-quality seafood means that we work closely with trusted suppliers who specialize in catching fish in their natural environment. This ensures that our fish are not only delicious but also free from harmful chemicals and additives that can be found in farmed fish. Our fish are caught using ethical and sustainable fishing methods, which helps to preserve natural fish populations for future generations.

 

Regeneratively Focused

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we are committed to integrating regenerative agriculture practices that not only produce high-quality products but also improve the health of our soil, animals, and the environment. Our regeneratively raised ruminant animals are strategically moved across open pastures, where they graze on nutrient-rich grasses. This grazing process helps to build the animals' health and resilience while enhancing the carbon sequestering of the soil—helping to combat environmental degradation. As the weather and seasons allow, our chickens and pigs rotate across the same pastures as our cattle and sheep for additional diversity and regenerative impact. By using regenerative agriculture techniques, we can prevent the need for synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides in our pastures, which can be harmful to the environment. Instead, we rely on natural systems to support the health of our animals and the land they graze on. Choosing regeneratively raised meat from Pleiades Ranch Oasis means you're also supporting sustainable farming practices prioritizing the health of our animals and the planet.

 

Humanely Raised

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we treat animals with respect and care. That's why all of our animals are humanely raised in a low-stress environment, with plenty of room to move and express their natural instincts. We take pride in the fact that our animals are treated with the utmost care and attention. From seasonal pastures to low-stress handling and humane harvesting, we’re committed to ethical farming practices. We only partner with family-owned abattoirs with humane, transparent operations.

No Growth Promotants

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, we never administer growth promotants such as Paylean to our animals. Instead, we raise our animals naturally, with wholesome nutrition, resulting in meat that’s better for your health and well-being.

 

CHEM-Free

At Pleiades Ranch Oasis, our seafood products are free from harmful chemicals. Our shrimp and other seafood are carefully harvested and never subjected to chemical baths, sprays, or cleansers that can be harmful to both the environment and your health. You can rest assured that our seafood is as pure and natural as possible, so you can enjoy a delicious and worry-free meal.

 

Preventative Vaccine Policy

Pleiades Ranch Oasis and our partners do not administer mRNA vaccines. Furthermore, we have no plans to adopt mRNA vaccines and intend to continue this policy. Most consumers are unaware that even 100% Certified Organic standards allow vaccine use similar to conventional practices. We have found that reliance on vaccines can be reduced and, in some cases, eliminated by building resilience in the health of our livestock. We've always been judicious when deciding if and when vaccines should be used. Currently, we allow traditional vaccines in cases with high risk for life-threatening infections such as tetanus in cattle or viral conditions such as Marek's disease in laying hens. Building resilience against disease and sickness is an effort that will require decades of soil regeneration and holistic breeding practices to rebuild natural resistance to pests and disease. This effort reflects the very mission of Pleiades Ranch Oasis. Therefore, we will always seek to pursue preventive and holistic alternatives to conventional vaccine use and practices.

Why Drink Raw Milk?

Raw milk offers a wide variety of essential nutrients, fats, proteins, anti-inflammatory and digestive enzymes, bioavailable vitamins, and minerals, all in a naturally occurring form. This makes raw milk easily digestible and beneficial, even for many people who are lactose intolerant.

Purchase Locations

You can purchase any of the products at the locations listed below. If you are local, feel free to stop by our Country Store at the Ranch.

 

Jar Deposits

If purchasing milk or cream in glass, you will need to exchange a mason jar with a plastic lid like the ones we use, or pay a jar deposit ($4 for half gallon, $3 for quart/pint, $.50 for a plastic lid alone). Make sure you include the jar deposit fee if needed. If you forget your jars on the day of delivery, we accept cash, check, Zelle, or Venmo payments for the jar deposits at the pickup. Alternatively, we can create a new online order for just those jars and charge against your store credit, credit card, or EFT bank draft.

If you are returning extra jars, note that in your order and we can adjust the total on our end. If you have a credit card or EFT saved on your account, and you don't have any items in your order that require approval, your card or bank account will be charged before we can adjust the total. In this situation, we will apply store credit to your account for future use, or you can ask for a cash refund at the time of pickup.

 

About Our Dairy

We are a Texas State Licensed Grade A Dairy, raising and milking A2/A2 Registered Jersey Cows. We are a pasture-based dairy and never skim off any cream. With only 8 to 10 cows in milk at any given time, we operate more like a big homestead with many family milk cows than a scaled-down commercial dairy.

 

What is A2/A2 Milk?

Casein is the largest group of proteins in milk, making up about 80% of the total protein content. There are several types of casein in milk, and beta-casein is the second most common. Beta-casein exists in at least 13 different forms. The two most common forms of beta-casein are:

  • A1 beta-casein: Found in breeds like Holstein, Friesian, Ayrshire, and British Shorthorn.

  • A2 beta-casein: Found in breeds like Jersey, Guernsey, Charolais, and Limousin.

Regular milk contains both A1 and A2 beta-casein, but A2 milk contains only A2 beta-casein. Some studies indicate that A1 beta-casein may be harmful, while A2 beta-casein is a safer choice, leading to the "A1 vs A2" debate.
