Holy cow!

One of my favorite products that is produced and found in Ohio is Snowville Creamery Milk. The dairy farm is just 100 miles from Columbus, in Pomeroy, Ohio.

(But I would also like to take this time to mention a heavenly delicious yogurt that I enjoy from Traders Point Creamery.)


I first discovered Snowville Milk at Whole Foods. I am a nonfat milk kind of girl, but Snowville's is creamier and richer, not watery like some nonfats. I currently have SC's 2% in my fridge, and boy, eating cereal is like having dessert with this stuff! (Then again, I am not used to having 2%).

You can purchase Snowville's milks at Whole Foods, North Market's Greener Grocer and select Giant Eagle and Kroger stores (their website has a complete list of locations). At $3.19 a carton, it's actually cheaper than its neighboring organic milks (even store brand!). Although Snowville is not technically organic, it's pretty awesome and better for you (it contains higher levels of ultra-healthy Omega-3s). To quote SC:
We believe milk is perfect when it comes from the cow so we process it as little as necessary. We do not homogenize so the cream naturally rises to the top. In addition, we pasteurize at the lowest legal temperature, resulting in milk that tastes sweet, clean and delicious.
I mentioned before that Snowville is used in the creation of Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams! A lot of folks I know already enjoy their amazing products. I think I need to pick up one of their tees, lawd knows I sing their praises enough! I'm such a huge fan of what they do.

Traders Point Creamery
Although this creamery is located near Indianapolis, it's close enough for me to consider it local. As pictured above, you can find Traders Point Creamery yogurts near Snowville Creamery milks at Whole Foods.
Packaged in recyclable glass bottles, Traders Point Eurpoean-style yogurts are so thick, creamy, flavorful and come from grass-fed cows. I enjoy the wild berry flavor.
Yeah, it is a bit pricey, but I highly recommend that you indulge yourself in a bottle of this sweet, sweet ambrosia if you come across it.
