Organic Creamery is the new
product line from Shaw Farm, a
100 year old family operated
dairy farm in Dracut, MA. Since
1908, the Shaw family has been
farming in the Merrimack Valley,
growing feed for the cows, and
producing milk for local
customers that support local and
fresh farm products.
Shaw farm
owns and operates 135 acres, most
of which we have preserved
forever through the Agricultural
Preservation Program. In
addition, the farm rents an
additional 125 acres from other
farms.
Although our farm practices
have always been very close to
organic standards, over the
years we have heard from a
number of our customers who have
asked us to produce a certified
organic product. It is important
to note that in our long
history, we have never used
artificial growth hormones. | |

The
organic cows |
| |
|
Our organic herd
has been raised by organic
standards. No antibiotics or
growth hormones have ever been
used. In addition, the organic
herd is fed nutritionally
balanced organic grain, one of
the many items that contribute
to the higher price of organic
milk.

Humane
Conditions |

|
All of our cows,
both organic and traditional,
are treated humanely. Our barn
facility is among the finest and
most modern in the industry,
with plenty of fresh air and
lots of room.
