Thomas Creamery Retires Nov 2014

Thomas Creamery

Letter from Thomas Creamery……
Have you “herd” the news? We are retiring. We have decided it was time for us to “head out to pasture”.

As of this week we are closing our farm and creamery. This is our last week bottling milk, making yogurt, and delivering our products to stores. All of our cows, our “Jersey girls”, have headed to a large pastured organic farm in Missouri.

We sincerely thank each of you as well as all of our stores for faithfully supporting our farm over the years. We have been honored with the distinction of producing some of the top yogurt and milk in the nation for quality and nutrition (see Cornucopia Institute). And we have eight fabulous employees who have worked hard for the success of the farm.

We were originally “city kids” and have been on the farm 17 years now building our business. Now it is time for us to slow down and take a rest. Keep an eye on us in the future as we look toward the Traverse City area. We just may be at it again in a few seasons.

We deeply thank you with all our hearts for your support all these years. You are the ones who have made us successful.

If anyone would like to continue with the Thomas Organic Creamery tradition of creating nutrient-dense yogurt and milk, our creamery equipment is for sale. We would love to train the right person who has the desire to continue what we have started. Please feel free to contact us by email at thomasyogurt@4cld.net.

Sincerely, Harley and Linda Thomas
