Official Brand Overview

In 2001, Trickling Springs Creamery stated with certified organic milk production using a plant that was not yet certified. One year later, when we received organic certification, it became clear that we had built up a market interested in our high-quality grass-fed milk but not in the certification, so we continued selling Trickling Springs natural milk. In 2011, we realized that we had to change the way we marketed our milk. The word “natural” was becoming (and still is) greatly overused and misused to the point that it has no definite meaning. We have always aimed to be transparent with our consumers, but confusion existed between our organic and natural products, with our consumers needing to study the caps of bottles to determine which product they were purchasing. We needed to establish a separate brand that definitely stood for something and was not defined by the conventional definition of “natural.” In 2012, we launched the rebranded version of our Trickling Springs natural milk as FarmFriend! This brand would support grass-fed dairies transitioning to certified organic status or farms committed to a very strict set of standards. Later in 2012, we also launched a line of fresh goat milk from small goat farms in central Pennsylvania. Our upcoming goals include non-GMO project verification for all our products and tightening of our restriction on the minimal amount of grain fed to the cows of our suppliers
