Certifications Confirmed
SPCA Certified
The BC SPCA provides an independent audit of our dairy operation and certifies that we meet or exceed their high standards of animal husbandry. We take good care of our cows. It makes good financial sense as the truism “Happy cows make good [and lots of!] milk” suggests. We also take good care of our cows (and all of the animals on our farm: domestic, farm and wild) because it is morally the right thing to do. As farmers we have taken on the responsibility of caring for these animals, and we take that responsibility seriously. See more about the SPCA standards at: BC SPCA
Environmental Partner Certification
The Land Conservancy certifies that we are actively improving our 68 acre piece of paradise. Our farm includes forests, riparian areas along Morningstar Creek, fields, a house and a working environment. It is habitat for dozens of different species of birds and ducks as well as fish (and water animals), deer, elk, cows, chickens, a farm family and a great bunch of employees. Caring for our land involved establishing balance so that we can all co-exist in a healthy way. Did you know that permanent pasture is a better carbon sink than Amazon jungle? And we have over 60 acres of it! Check it out at: The Land Conservancy
Canadian Quality Milk
CQM is a HACCP based milk quality program, designed to ensure that all of the milk produced on our farm is of the highest quality. HACCP plans identify possible risk points in any production process (in our case milking cows) and establishes protocols for minimizing those possible risks. We’re pleased to add yet another level of protection that assures that only the best milk is used to make our cheeses. Dairy Goodness
Verified Beef
We not only make and sell great cheese, we also produce on our farm and sell beef and pork as well. Our verified beef certification is a HACCP-based food quality certification intended to reduce any food safety risk and ensure that all the beef on our farm is of the highest quality. BC Cattlemen's Association
BC Agritourism Association
We are audited and certified by the BC Agritourism alliance as meeting or exceeding their quality standards for a farm-based tourism operation. We not only welcome you to visit our farm, but we make every effort to do so with professionalism and fun!
