Yogurt, then and now

St. Benoît Honey Yogurt 16 oz / Clover Organic Farms Plain Yogurt 16 oz

There is evidence of yogurt dating all the way back to 500 BCE, in the records of ancient Iran and India.  Ancient India called the mixture of milk and honey “food of the gods.” Pliny the Elder wrote about nomadic tribes thickening milk “to a certain acidity.” Nomadic Turks recorded the use of yogurt in their texts.[1][2]

In short, yogurt has been around.

And so now we have a couple of new containers for you! Choose from Jersey Cow milk transformed into luscious honey yogurt (St. Benoit), or organic, plain, lowfat yogurt (Clover Organic Farms) in a large tub.

Local rich, cream-top whole milk – in glass bottles!

St. Benoît Whole Jersey Milk, 1 liter, $3.89 + $1.50  bottle deposit

Local, Sonoma County-goodness from sweet whole Jersey cows. Real milk has this sort of buttery color to it. And we have it!

Drink up, everyone.
