Hello everybody and sorry to interrupt your day with a request. The Hillsdale I.G.A. is now carrying the Hudson Valley Fresh dairy products and I need to thank Chuck Weldon for this. Hudson Valley Fresh is a milk producing cooperative composed of only eight high quality, local farms. Jim Davenport, Walt’s Dairy (the Kiernan’s), Jon Conklin at Langdon’s and the Skoda’s are all members.
Many people ask me where to buy milk because they are worried about quality and food safety. I consider these some of my top farms. Requirements for them to ship milk to Hudson valley Fresh are that they do not use BST, keep their somatic cell counts very low and have the type of farm that people can visit and want to buy their products. They are also feeding more hay to increase D-3 levels. Their milk is now sold through the Hudson Valley including many quality vendors in New York City.
This milk and cream will be fresh because it produced and bottled locally and I think you will love the taste. The price will be higher but the farmers receive all of the profit. There is no middle man.
It is time that all of us support the farmers in this area. Recent events compel us to look at our role in helping. We want the green fields and open spaces that farms provide we must care enough to help. I guarantee that you’ll love the milk and cream.
Thank for your time,
George Beneke
