Buffalo Valley Pastures is excited to bring our farm fresh food right to your door via UPS! Our farm workers pack your orders right on the farm in insulated boxes with ice packs. Our products are bottled or made fresh to order the day before shipping. For more answer to questions you may have, check out our FAQ’s page.
The Packing and Shipping Process:
We take special care in packing your food in insulated boxes with plenty of ice. UPS picks it up from the farm and delivers it right to your door!
We ship every Monday and Tuesday. The order deadline is Friday at 7:00 am Eastern. If UPS does it right, your order should get to you in 1-3 days depending on your location and when your package was sent. The reason we ship Monday and Tuesday and no additional days is to ensure that we have enough milk to fulfill orders and leave time for shipping delays. We bottle and prepare dairy items fresh to order. It is normal to not see tracking updates until Mondays and Tuesdays after 5 pm when UPS picks up the packages.
*To track your shipment and to communicate with UPS delivery personnel, sign up for UPS MyChoice. You can get delivery alerts, change the address and give special instructions for delivery to the driver. That way you do not have to worry about missing your important delivery!
Our Western friends: We can ship our food to you if you wish; however, shipping may not be very cost effective or reliable. UPS shipping charges are very high! We do not reimburse shipping costs for failed UPS deliveries because UPS does not reimburse us. Please reach out to us for a shipping quote if you are interested.
How Shipping Is Calculated
We have a shipping algorithm that calculates your shipping cost so you know how much you are paying at the time of check out. The shipping cost is determined by your Delivery Zone (1 Day, 2 Day, 3 Day) and the weight of the items in your card. There is a price per pound assigned to your specific delivery zone and a flat fee. As you add items to your cart, you will see the cost per pound go up, When you check out, you will see that flat fee added to your ship total.
Example: product weight X rate + flat fee = shipping cost (50 pounds X .85 + 20 = $62.50)
