Jersey Milk and Our Farm Whole raw Jersey milk is produced by approximately 40 registered Jersey cows at our farm. We milk each cow twice a day. Each cow gives an average of 4 to 5 gallons of milk each day.
Cows consume a great deal of food to make the milk.
The average milk-producing Jersey cow drinks about 25 gallons of water each day. To accommodate these colossal appetites, we bale, dry and store our hay in the mow above the barn. This feed is called silage. We store grain in the round metal bins behind the barn. Grain is mixed and ground with the help of machines inside the steel building.
