Farmer Viewpoints
Sunshine Dairy Foods sources fresh milk from family farms in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, the Yakima Valley and Chehalis, Washington. Our partners in Farmers Cooperative Creamery (FCC), based in McMinnville, Oregon, have pledged not to use recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBST). Since the introduction of rBST in 1994, Sunshine has formed relationships with farmers who believe natural is better and make farming choices that support healthy cows and quality milk. Along with fresh milk for sale, FCC churns butter and processes rBST-free dried milk powder used as an ingredient in Sunshine Ice Cream, Yogurt and Sour Cream.
