An Organic Cow

Animals...

The humane treatment of animals is the cornerstone of farm operations at Aurora Organic Dairy. Since we manage our own herds and require farms that produce milk for us become animal welfare certified by Validus, we are able to maintain industry-leading protocols for organic livestock care and animal welfare.

We strive to ensure that each cow on our farms is well-nourished and properly treated. Our long experience working dairy herds has proven that healthy and well-nourished cows are less susceptible to illness.

We focus on preventing disease through routine animal monitoring and provide the cows with year-round outdoor access with ample room to exhibit their natural behaviors. Our herds eat nutritionally dense organic pasture and feed and are cared for by well-trained, experienced animal care specialists.

Our approach to animal care makes a real difference in our products. Healthy, well-nourished cows produce better-quality organic milk.
