Cool site shows you where your milk is from
Where is my milk from? shows you where your dairy products were processed. I checked 2 gallons of Organic Valley milk I have in our fridge and 1 is from Sunshine Dairy Foods in Portland and the other is from a Darigold in Seattle.
Re: Cool site shows you where your milk is from
How cool!! I wish I had a carton of milk with me! I'll have to wait.
Wait, how is your Organic Valley milk from Darigold? Is some of Darigold organic? I always thought it was all conventional and all became Darigold products.
On the Organic Valley site you can read up on the member farms in your area.
I just found this article from 1997:
"CROPP (Coulee Region Organic Produce Pool) also goes beyond the careful processing and shipment of organic dairy products. It has developed a brand, Organic Valley, and an identity as a "family of farms," and is marketing both brand and image coast to coast with increasing success."
"CROPP has grown from its seven founding farmers to 125. The core remains in Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa and Minnesota. But in 1995, they were joined by some Washington and Oregon members of the Seattle-based Darigold co-op. Processing also was set up through Darigold."
The Darigold site doesn't list any organic products so they must all be sold under Organic Valley.
I'll have to check out the Organic Valley site to see what farms are in our area.
My Organic Valley milk had 4 numbers to the right or under the date.
This milk's number would be "34 1594" and after looking it up it is from Dean NE LLC/ A Garelick Farms in New Jersey
I had 5321 tooo!!!
Glad you figured it out.
I had no idea! Cool--I'm off to see what farms are in my area.
