Ithaca Milk® was started a few years ago 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.

Since inception, Ithaca Milk® has focused on supporting a few small, single breed farms with extremely high-quality milk. Milk is made by cows as a highly variable and complicated natural ingredient. They know that the best way to make great yogurt is to use great milk.

 

Rather than add artificial ingredients, thickeners, stabilizers, or devising complicated processing methods to correct for low quality milk; they focus on getting the best milk possible from the healthiest, happiest cows. All of the Grade A Cow Milk products are produced using non-homogenized, vat-pasteurized Jersey Milk. Jersey Milk has a distinctly sweeter flavor and is creamier than Holstein milk.

 

The farms and the Ithaca Milk® creamery are located just outside of Ithaca in the country. We invite you to visit the Ithaca Milk® website for more information on our farms, our processes, and our products.

The Quest for the perfect cup of yogurt

Unlike bulk milk sourced from multiple farms and mixed cow breeds, Ithaca Milk® yogurt starts with 100% pure Jersey milk.

Traditional milk sourcing often results in commingled milk, impacting flavor and quality.

Ithaca Milk® prioritizes superior taste by sourcing fresh Jersey milk directly from select farms, using their own milk hauler for same-day delivery to the creamery. This small-batch approach ensures their yogurt retains the distinct flavor and natural characteristics of pure Jersey milk. 

By keeping things small scale, we can say Ithaca Milk’s 100% Jersey yogurt is the best yogurt you can make with cow’s milk.”
