Two ways to get your food
Come out to the farm and collect it yourself, or have eligible items shipped cold to your door. Enter your zip in the store and it shows exactly what we can send to your address. Either way it left our hands within days of being milked, gathered, or baked.
Order online
Fill your cart any time. Once you sign in, the store shows your next order deadline at the top of every page, so you always know where you stand.
We pack it fresh
Nothing is packed until the day it goes out. Milk is bottled, orders are boxed, and everything stays cold from our cooler to your hands.
Pick up or receive
Collect at the farm, or watch for the box on your doorstep. Get it into the fridge and you are set for the week.
Pick up at the farm, or have it shipped
Come to the farm
The simplest way, and the one we like best. You collect your order at the farm, meet whoever is around, and you are welcome to walk out and look at the animals while you are here. No delivery fee, ever.
Mondays, noon to nine in the evening
Bring a cooler in warm weather. It is a working farm, so watch for equipment and keep an eye on little ones.
Shipped to your door
Shipping availability depends on the product and your destination. Enter your zip and the store shows exactly what we can send you, packed cold, on a set weekly schedule.

Before your first order
How does it stay cold?
A cardboard box with an insulated liner and gel ice packs, packed to stay cold until around five in the evening on the day it arrives. The box and liner are both compostable. The gel packs can be refrozen and used again, or cut open and emptied down the drain. We use eco-friendly packaging wherever we can, and the way to avoid packaging altogether is to bring your own cooler to the farm.
What if I am not home when it arrives?
No signature is needed and you do not need to be home. It is packed to stay cold until about five in the evening, so get it into the fridge that evening. Meat may arrive partly thawed and is fine as long as you refreeze it right away. We cannot be responsible for a box left out overnight, but if anything is not right, call us and we will make it right.
When do I need to order by?
Orders ship on Tuesdays, and the order window closes the Friday before. Once you have an account, the store shows your next deadline at the top of every page so you never have to remember it.
Is there a minimum order?
There is a $50 minimum on shipped orders, so there is enough in the box to hold temperature properly. Shipping is charged on top of that. There is no minimum if you collect at the farm.
Which states do you ship to?
Enter your zip code in the store and it will show you exactly what we can send to your address. Availability depends on the product and where you are.
How long will everything keep?
An unopened bottle at the back of the fridge keeps about two weeks, and about a week once opened. Cheese holds longer but will mold at the edges around two weeks, just trim it. Our eggs are unwashed, so they keep six to eight weeks. Bread keeps about a week on the counter, longer in the fridge, and freezes well when fresh.
Can I set up a standing order?
Yes. Set up a standing order and pause or change it whenever you like. It means a steady supply and the best price we offer.
Something arrived wrong. What now?
Call us at (223) 221-0040 or email info@noblepastures.com and we will make it right. We would rather hear about it than have you quietly stop ordering.
