Lazy SP Ranch

We have some big news!!

For the last couple years we've been invited to be a vendor out in Nampa. But we just couldn't wrap our heads around doing it and making it feasible.

However, we're pleased to say that this coming Saturday, we will be at the Nampa Farmers Market with our delicious milk and Clover, one of our milking girls.

They run every Saturday from 9am to 1:30pm and is located on Front Street between 13th and 14th Ave close to the Historic Nampa Train Depot.

We will have schedules up of when we will be attending and when we will have milk sales at our farm for pick ups. We will have sales every Monday between 2p and 6p but will be closed the Wednesday and Friday leading up to the Farmers Market to make sure we will have enough inventory to bring to the market. On week's we are not doing the market, we will be open Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays between 2p and 6p at 8921 Foothill Rd in Middleton.

We are very excited and love that we get to bring our milk out to this wonderful market where there are so many items to shop for!! Veggies, pies, cinamon rolls, meats, food trucks, etc.

We look forward to seeing some of our regulars as well 😊

Everyone knows I share both the good…and the bad. Unfortunately, today was the bad. Some of you may have met Quinn. She was our little Charlois heifer calf that we’d been working with for almost a month now. She came to us with a cough, desperately in need of a good source of food, and lots of love. We started her on antibiotics, probios, vitamin b, wormed her, and started giving her milk, grass hay, calf starter, and unlimited water. She improved and was putting weight on and her cough started going away. However, in the last 24 hours, she took a turn for the worst and we just couldn’t bring her back.

We had to let her go 💔

There’s a saying that when you have livestock, you have dead-stock. But sometimes, you have to realize when to turn the livestock into dead-stock.

This is the hardest part of my job, when you know you just can’t save them all.

I’m so sorry Quinn, I wish I could’ve done more for you 🥺

4:52pm 5/27

We'll see everyone Friday!!

We had our kindergartener graduate this morning, but we still have our fifth grader that starts in a couple hours. We will be open today, but our hours are going to be from 4p to 7p for milk pick ups today.

We have a new baby girl 🎀

She is out of our new Heritage Milking Shorthorn, Betsy, and Bass Player (MSH). We have named her Rosie and are so excited for her 😍😍

Afternoon everyone!!

We are going to be closed today for milk pickups. Sorry for any inconvenience 🙏 we'll see everyone on Friday!!

Deal day!!

We have LOTS of milk and need to clear the fridge.

Anything older than 5/10 is going to be $6 a gallon. We have some that is from 5/5 that would be great for making yogurt so if you've ever wanted to try your hand at making some this milk would be great to use. Just let us know you'd like the older milk.

All other milk is $8 per gallon and we have eggs 🥚 they are $5 per dozen but if you return our cartons to us, we'll take a dollar off. If you buy two gallons of milk today, you can purchase a dozen eggs for $3.

Incase it was missed...we were on the news for a hot minute today 😉

As Canyon County keeps growing, one Middleton ranch says the changes are becoming impossible to ignore.

From heavier traffic to drought and pressure from development, ranchers at Lazy SP Ranch say daily life is getting harder.
