Hormone-free milk in StL - where to buy
I heard Dierbergs is going to be selling it. Not being a regular Dierberg's shopper, can you tell me if they're already selling it and rough cost per gallon?
Anywhere else?
How much cheaper is it than organic milk?
Thanks!
Re: Hormone-free milk in StL - where to buy
I buy organic milk at Costco.
For 3 half gallon cartons we pay around $8.
When we bought the half gallons at Shop N Save I think it was 4 something for a half gallon.
Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. The 365 Brand at Whole Foods isn't priced too badly.
Oberweis also doesn't treat their cows with hormones. They're not certified organic, but they pledge that they treat their animals humanely and without hormones. I love their reduced fat chocolate milk. (Their other milk is great, too.) You can buy Oberweis at Dierberg's, Whole Foods and at the Oberweis shops. I believe you can also order online.
Dierbergs does sell rBGH free dairy products. I used to only shop at Whole Foods but recently Dierbergs has really gotten on the ball regarding organic, vegetarian/vegan food. I quit going to Whole Foods for those products and my grocery bill dropped by almost half. It's 3 something a gallon, I think. But I'm lactose intolerant so I drink 8th Continent. But according to the touch screens at the check out, all milk sold at Dierbergs is now rBGH free, even if it is not labeled.
Another thing to keep in mind is that farmer's markets are up and running. It's that time of year. Most of the farmers at the markets are MORE than willing to let you visit their farms and see how they raise their livestock and veggies, and this way you keep it very local.
Since the farmer's market opened, almost half of our fresh produce comes from 3 local farmers
