Mt. Sterling Cheese Cooperative foundered in 1976, is one of this country’s largest goat milk co-ops offering international award winning cheese. www.buygoatcheese.com Westby Cooperative Creamery is farmer-owned which means that more than 100 farmers who supply milk to the creamery own the company. The creamery was created in 1903 making it one of the oldest cheese factories in the state. Working with nature is what inspired our original seven farmers to form an organic farming cooperative in 1988. Today Organic Valley's membership has grown to over 750 family farms. www.organicvalley.coop Turkey Ridge Organic apple orchard enjoys sharing how to take care of your apple trees and other plants so you can grow organically. www.turkeyridgeorganic.com The beauty of Harmony Valley Farm is a result of integrating a healthy, natural environment with well-managed organic production. We promote biological soil life and fertility through a system of cover cropping and applications of compost and minerals. Our healthy mineral balanced soils produce great tasting vegetables with exceptional flavor and nutrition. Planting and maintaining year-round habitat allows the songbirds, bats, bees and beneficial insects to take up residence and become our allies in pest control. Sylvan Meadows Farm |
