ITHACA MILK®
Sustainable Is Possible
About
ITHACA MILK®
Ithaca Milk® was started with the idea in mind that small scale, sustainable farming is possible in a modern farming landscape.
The animals and the land that produce our food should be treated with respect, and managed with the living environment in mind.
WHAT WE SERVE
While yogurt is our specialty, we also bottle up the pure Jersey milk and use any extra to make our delicious raw milk cheese!
Cream Top Whole Milk
We serve nothing but 100% Jersey milk from the FingerLakes region. We pride ourselves on using nothing but milk from small, local farms. This milk contains no hormones, no antibiotics, and no RBST.
Yogurt
One of the things that makes us unique, is that we produce all our yogurt in our own creamery. The yogurt uses the same pure, small batch, unadulterated milk.
Raw Milk Cheddar
We believe in utilizing all the product we get from our amazing farm partners, and that is how our cheese line got started! Any excess milk that we have goes into making our Raw Milk Cheddars.
Made with Milk From
HAPPY COWS
Our Jersey milk is produced in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate NY on three small farms, located within ten miles of the creamery.
Each farm is less than 100 acres and milks a small number of animals, about 50 Jersey cows. Jersey cows are perfect for us because they are smaller and eat less, giving less milk with better components than other breeds. The special milk that Jersey cows make gives our yogurt and cream-on-top milk that rich, golden color.
We like to keep it
SIMPLE AND FRESH
We want to produce food that is nutritious and supports our farm, leaving the opportunity for us and our children to farm in the future.
