**About us**

Little Brown Cow is a small business in Norfolk County, ON N0E 1K0. We are rewarding, innovative, demanding, and our goal is to be the BEST, 100% transparent, Field to Fork dairy farm that is entirely on display to the public. Nutrient dense Jersey Milk is the backbone of our operation, as we produce white and chocolate whole milk, more than a dozen artisanal hard and soft cheeses, as well as the best cheese curds outside of Quebec. Access to our products is exclusively through our hugely popular "100 Mile" retail store. Though sales have traditionally been from local communities and regional tourism, multiple viral TikTok customer posts have connected our unique "whole milk" offerings to a variety of cultural communities in neighboring regions..
