Quality Standards

Exceeding Regulations for Dairy Processing, Preparation and Handling

Our processing plant labs are staffed with a team of quality control specialists who test milk at numerous points along the supply chain for freshness and food safety. These tests allow us to provide direct feedback to the farms, improving the quality of our milk.

Water and Energy Efficiency are Essential

Processing Plants That are Environmentally Conscious

Beyond being organic and processing quality products, our plants are designed with environmental sustainability in mind.

Low-wattage lighting, variable speed motors, robotics and heavy-duty insulation to prevent heat and energy loss are just a few of the many energy efficient and conservation systems in place. The plants have their own water treatment facilities onsite, which allows them to pretreat and return a majority of the water used in the milk pasteurization process.
