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
on February 13, 2009 that H.P. Hood was not renewing their contract to
buy organic milk from our farm and several other family farms in the
state of Maine. We are currently
working as a group with the
Maine Farm
Bureau and the
Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association to market our milk
directly to grocery stores in Maine. We have formed a new
company called Maine's Own Organic Milk Company, L3C, LLC (also
know as MOO Milk Company) and we are hoping to have our milk in
stores this fall.
You can find more information on organic milk in
Maine and show support for Maine's family-run organic dairy
farms by visiting

and

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.

We're proud to be the 2008 Outstanding Conservation Farm of the Year
for the
Central Aroostook Soil and Water Conservation District.
