The Farmer’s Cow is an innovative, premium milk brand produced and marketed by Connecticut family owned dairy farms.
The Farmer’s Cow was formed in response to consumers’ interest in purchasing fresh, naturally produced, local products.
Collectively, The Farmer’s Cow member farms milk 2,300 cows and manage over 6,000 acres of Connecticut farmland. The Farmer’s Cow milk is currently available in over 100 grocery stores throughout the state. A complete listing of retailers is shown at www.thefarmerscow.com.
The Farmer’s Cow is sold in half gallon cartons in whole, 2 percent, 1 percent and skim varieties. Chocolate milk and single-serve packaging are under development.
The owners of The Farmer’s Cow are active members in The Connecticut Farmland Trust and The Working Lands Alliance who are working to protect and preserve Connecticut farmland. They were also the founding members of “Very Alive,” a non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion of Connecticut Agriculture.
Connecticut farms contribute $2 billion annually to the local economy.1
