Join Organic Valley and Macaroni KID as we tour a farm! We will meet Stephanie Tranel, Organic Valley Spokesperson, farmer, and mother of 5. She will take us on a tour of her farm, introduce us to the calves and more!
Why we love the Organic Valley co-op:
- Pure & simple: They have always believed food should be pure and simple. They never use antibiotics, synthetic hormones, or feed treated with harsh pesticides.
- Animal care: Organic Valley’s Dairy Animal Care Standards, which embrace a natural philosophy to let cows be cows outside. Their average herd is small – less than 80 cows – and they spend more time outside on pasture than 95% of US dairy cows. Because they spend more time outside, they have a more nutrient-rich and diverse diet, and more grass in their diet than organic standards require.
- More on the animals... healthy chickens = healthy eggs: All Organic Valley chickens have access to organic pastures, where they spend their days clucking, strutting, and pecking at bugs and earthworms. On rainy days, the chickens stay in the coop, but keeping them happy and healthy is the highest priority.
- Small and family-centered: They are an independent co-op of small organic family farms, rather than big factory farms or mega-corporations. They are passionate about doing what's right for people, animals, and the earth and are committed to bringing ethically-made organic food to families everywhere.
