About Us
At zOjas Life, our journey began over two decades ago, rooted in a deep commitment to sustainablefarming and holistic wellness. We are the Busselberg family, and our dedicationspans across farms in Idaho, Hawaii, Washington, and Maryland. Our mission is
to nurture 100% grass-fed cows, embodying our ethos of ethical and regenerative agriculture
Throughout our farming journey, one constant that has always blessed our family’s lives is colostrum. We know firsthand the vital benefits of colostrum for calves raised on the farm and have learned it can be incredibly beneficial for our family as well. During the coldest seasons and times of illness, we relied on its immune-boosting properties to fortify our health. Personally, I experienced a transformative healing journey, rebuilding
my gut from leaky gut syndrome and sensitivities. This was not just about
healing but also gaining a profound shift in perspective on the shortcomings of
our food system.
Along our path, we met the Sohn family, who homeschool like us and have 20 years of faithful military service. Their lessons on adaptation and perseverance, gained from moving across the country, have greatly influenced our mission. Together, our families have been divinely led to work together in developing and dedicating ourselves to zOjas Life colostrum. This diverse background has shaped our commitment to resilience, community, and preparedness.
At zOjas Life, we believe in living according to the
principles of "Ojas," which signifies vitality and life force in Ayurvedic tradition. This philosophy extends into every aspect of our lifestyle, community, families, and health. We strive to cultivate and share this vitality through our farming practices, products, and interactions with our customers. zOjas represents our commitment to fostering well-being and resilience in both our bodies and our environment.
Our commitment to ethical farming practices goes beyond just raising animals; it’s about cultivating a system that respects and rejuvenates
the land. Each of the farms we work with is a testament to the principles of organic farming, where the health of the soil, the wellbeing of our animals, and the quality of our produce are interconnected.
We’ve always believed in the power of transparency and
community. By bringing consumers closer to the source of their food, we hope to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for the processes that create ,sustainable, nutritious food. This connection not only supports local farmers but also ensures that the food we consume is of the highest quality.
Now, we're excited to share our wealth of experience and the transformative power of zOjas Life colostrum with everyone. Our colostrum is
more than a supplement; it’s a testament to our journey and our commitment to health and wellness. We invite you to embark on a wellness journey that's been years in the making and experience firsthand the benefits of zOjas Life colostrum.
Our ECO Impact
At zOjas Life, our commitment to sustainable and regenerative farming goes beyond producing colostrum with integrity. Our 100%
grass-fed, organic dairy farms are designed to create a positive environmental
impact by building healthy soil and sequestering carbon through innovative regenerative practices.
Our cows graze on nutrient-dense forages grown in soils
enriched by photosynthesis and carbon sequestration. Through this process,
carbon is drawn from the atmosphere and stored in the ground, contributing to
the development of rich, fertile soils. This carbon sequestration not only
reduces greenhouse gases but also fosters robust fungal and bacterial networks,
including the vital mycorrhizal networks. These networks facilitate the
exchange of nutrients, creating a thriving ecosystem beneath our pastures that
supports the growth of diverse and nutrient-rich plants.
Our regenerative farming practices extend to water
management and biodiversity. By promoting water cycling and creating
microclimates, our farms become more resilient to climate variability. The
diverse plant species we cultivate sustain a variety of soil and ecological
fauna, ensuring a balanced and healthy ecosystem. These practices lead to the
repopulation of the area with a wide array of animals, water sources, and
flora, all working in harmony to maintain ecological balance.
Our farms are living examples of how agriculture can coexist
with nature, enhancing the environment rather than depleting it. Through our
commitment to these principles, we are not only producing superior colostrum
but also contributing to the restoration of natural ecosystems, fostering
biodiversity, and creating sustainable agricultural practices for future generations.
