Organic Milk & Dairy Score Card | 2020 Cornucopia Institute

If you’re new to the Milk, Yogurt, and Dairy Score Card by Cornucopia Institute, you can search your neighborhood “organic” “grass fed” “pastured” milk and see if they’re 1 🐄 or 5 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄

This will also let you understand what parameters to ask about when you yourself are at the farmers market (e.g. Grass Fed, Soybean Feed, Pastured, Organic Commitment, Ownership Structure – Corporate vs Family, Times Milked, Supplemental Feed, and  more – super interesting!)

And share!:

 

It’s worth noting that specialty stores charge $5 a carton for Organic Milk that are a 1 🥚 rating. You can’t know which is truly organic or which is fake, until….. The Cornucopia Institute, a nonprofit agricultural watchdog group that reveals industrial practices within the elastic organic standards, began rating milk over five years ago. You can go through the list and see that Wholefoods 365 Brand is a 1 🐄, Straus’s $5 gallon is a 3 🐄 🐄 🐄 , and your neighborhood farmers market $4 gallon is a 5 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄 🐄 Eggs, poultry, dairy, grain products, pet foods, and more were turned into Score Cards on their website: cornucopia.org.
