Organic Pastures Dairy - Kerman
Organic Pastures Dairy Company is California's first certified organic, pasture-grazed raw milk dairy. The dairy was founded in 2000 as an extension of an organic farming operation that has been in operation since 1988 as McAfee Farm, a family-owned and operated dairy just outside the city of Kerman. The dairy produces Grade A raw milk using an innovative mobile milking Parlor, which moves to where the cows are grazing. This unique design eliminates the need for cows to walk long distances on concrete and through manure-filled pens to be milked. Individuals or groups are welcome to visit the farm, tour the bottling facility, observe dairy operations, and meet the cows (all of the cows have names). Tours available by written request. 7221 S. Jameson, Fresno, (559) 846-9732.
