The Heritage Jersey Organization is dedicated to promoting and preserving the original mid-size Jersey cow, reminiscent of the iconic tether-grazed Jersey cow from the early 1900s. They aim to establish standards for the ideal backyard, small-scale production cow, emphasizing the benefits of fresh, unadulterated, bone-building milk and the rich and tasty milk produced by Jerseys.
With a focus on the historical significance and genetic heritage of Jerseys, the organization seeks to pay homage to the original breed and provide resources for those interested in owning and breeding mid-size Jerseys. They aim to counter the trend of breeding for commercial production and advocate for the resurgence of the mid-size Jersey as a family milk cow.
