Since we opened our dairy doors in 1930, our goal has always been to deliver the freshest, highest-quality dairy to our neighbors. That’s why we follow time-honored family recipes, use only the highest-quality milk from Iowa family farms, taste-test each product every week to make sure it’s just right, and never, ever take shortcuts. These ridiculously high standards may slow down production of our milks, flavored milks, cottage cheeses, yogurts, juices, and favorites like holiday egg nogs and Party Dip, but we believe that goodness takes time. And our loyal fans deserve nothing less than our best.
