ABOUT THE FARM:

Kriemhild Dairy Farms, is a small, farmer-owned, agribusiness specializing in Organic, high quality full-fat, and cultured dairy foods with milk sourced from grass-based herds in Central New York. Our premier product is made by slowly churning fresh sweet cream into an 85% butterfat, resulting in our creamy, flavorful butter.   

Pittsford Farms Dairy continues to use the old fashion method of vat pasteurization.  During vat pasteurization, milk is heated to 145° for thirty minutes in small batches.  Vat pasteurization takes longer but preserves the natural sweetness of the milk and cream.

99% of the milk processed in the U.S. today is pasteurized at a high temperature for a short time.  During this process milk is heated to 161° for fifteen seconds.  The extra heat damages the proteins in the milk and alters its flavor. 

Pittsford Farms Dairy is committed to producing a full line of “low and slow” dairy products with the same quality, health benefits and flavor that our customers have been enjoying for more than a century.
