Welcome to Chase's Organic Dairy Farm! We are a
family owned and operated organic dairy farm located on the Creasey
Ridge Road in Mapleton, Maine. We
have about 100 cows in our herd, mostly Holsteins with many Red &
White Holsteins and a few Jerseys mixed in. We milk 60-70 cows on
average.
We were informed recently that H.P.
Hood won't be renewing their contract to buy organic milk from our
farm and several other family farms in the state of Maine. We
are currently looking for other markets for our organic milk and
are thankful to have the support of the
Maine Farm
Bureau and the
Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association as we do so.
To find out more about this situation and to show your support
for Maine's family-run organic dairy farms, please visit
www.maineorganicmilk.com.
Our farm
was started by Lewis Frazier Chase in 1935 and has been carried on by
his two sons, first Donald and then Vaughn. The entire family is
involved in caring for the land and the cattle.
We hope you will enjoy
these photos of our farm. |
