Pride of the Farm is by far the best milk. It is produced by Kreider Farms (a family-owned farm) in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. No one seems to be able to duplicate their process. Basically their secret (which is not so secret–you can go on their website and see what they are all about)is that after the milk is pasteurized it is chilled to a temperature of 33 degrees in 8 minutes. Also the cows are milked more often than on regular farms (the cows prefer that) and the cows are treated with TLC which produces better milk. The Star-K has a mashgiach who is on the farm and the milk is sold in different parts of Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Washington and Lakewood. I don’t think that they want to sell any further out (cows can just produce so much and not more!). Move to one of the above-mentioned areas and you will be able to have delicious cholov yisroel milk that stays fresh for longer than any of the New York milks. I know–we go through an average of 10 half gallons of milk a week. You can watch the cows in action on their website and when you come to Lancaster (chol hamoed is a good time) you can take a tour of their farm. By the way, their eggs are also delicious!
