At Twin Springs Creamery, we pride ourselves on the exceptional care for our animals and our planet. Our cows live at the dairy while they are lactating, meanwhile, dry cows and heifers stay at their home farms, maintaining a balanced stocking rate for sustainable land management. They mostly graze (during the warm season) and enjoy a hay-rich diet (during the cooler months). We use rotational grazing practices, are working with local farmers to access non-GMO grains, and offset the farm/cows’ greenhouse gas emissions (through Carbon Neutral Indiana) to provide you with carbon-neutral dairy products. Join us in supporting ethical farming practices that prioritize animal welfare and environmental stewardship.
