We started Raw Milk Boca with the intention of bringing local grass-fed raw milk and raw milk products to our hometown of Boca Raton. We were having a hard time finding these types of products locally and after a few months of talking (and meeting) with Florida farmers, we launched our shop. We couldn't be happier. This little shop gives us so much more than we ever expected. Sure, the food, the farmers and the message of eating real food are important but it comes down to the people. There's something so rewarding about delivering real food to someone's home. There's a wholesomeness to it that we never anticipated when we launched.
In a relatively short time, our shop has evolved - and will continue to evolve. We've added other foods and will add more as we go. We're listening to our customers and we're adding items they want to see.
We're taking our time to source from Florida farmers, bakers and other local entities that see things the way we do. We want to make sure we're offering the freshest, most nutritious and delicious foods possible. This venture isn't a business; it's our passion. We want our shop to offer the types of foods/drinks we want to consume - foods that are nourishing, delicious and close to nature. We're getting away from the mass-produced "foods" and sourcing from smaller, family-owned Florida farms.
The first non-dairy item we added to our shop were classically made artisan breads and sourdough pizza dough. We tested dozens of breads - and added the ones that were made with natural ingredients but also tasted amazing. We believe eating well should taste good and feel good. You shouldn't have to sacrifice flavor for nutrition.
We recently added grass-fed, grass-finished beef to our lineup. We've never been a big fan of the grass-fed/finished meats we've found locally, and we've tried them all, from the large health food supermarkets to the local high-end butcher shops. They always seemed to lack flavor.
It took us time to source and find the right cattle farmers, but we found a local regenerative farm offering grass-fed, pasture raised, humanely treated cows. After trying many cuts of beef, we fell in love with their Angus and F1 wagyu blend. This blend gives the meat a marbling that you just can't find in other grass-fed/finished meats. For now, we're offering just a few cuts; ribeye, NY Strip, filet mignon, brisket burger patties, ground beef and ground ancestral blend but with such a high level of interest in just the first few weeks we're in talks with our farmer to add more.
We mean it when we say your support means the world to us - it means the world to our farmers too, so thank you!
More to come! Xoxo
