Maine's Own Organic Milk Company produces high quality organic milk. We are dedicated to keeping organic family farms across Maine in business. The farms that produce our milk share ownership in the company, and 90 percent of our profits are returned directly to those farms.
Maine Farm Bureau, Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association and the Maine Department of Agriculture worked together with these farmers to help create this company. Start-up funding was provided by Stonyfield Farm, Oakhurst Dairy and Smiling Hill Farm.
The family farms involved are of many different sizes and each has its own story. Collectively, they represent the hard work, innovation, commitment to conservation, wise use of natural resources, and the traditional community values that make Maine's agricultural sector a key component of the state's economy.
Keeping these farm families viable has also helped protect hundreds of acres of Maine farmland.
Not only is our milk produced on Maine farms, it is also trucked, processed, and distributed through a strong network of Maine family-owned businesses.
Our partnership includes our customers. When they purchase MOOMilk they help build strong connections between farmers and the people drinking their milk.
Thank you for your interest in Maine's Own Organic Milk. |
