A few of Maine’s hard-working dairy farmers were recently recognized by Oakhurst Dairy at the company’s annual Producer Luncheon The awards banquet, which has been held for more than 20 years, allows Oakhurst Dairy to show its appreciation for the dedicated service of its independent farmers. Congratulations to all of the award winners!
“The farms that produce Oakhurst milk are part of the Oakhurst family,” said Stan Bennett, president of Oakhurst Dairy. “As the truly local brand of milk, we are committed to providing the freshest, highest quality milk we can. Working directly with our farms helps us to maintain these high quality levels, and we think it’s important to recognize those who meet and exceed our expectations.”
For quality, the Producer of the Year was Hemond Farm of Minot, Maine. For volume production predictions, Algahoma Farm of Knox, Maine, went home with the award by coming in at a variation of 0.07 percent of their prediction.
Oakhurst Dairy works directly with 84 independent Maine farms that supply their milk. In many cases, these farmers have been producing for Oakhurst for three generations. Oakhurst is northern New England’s largest independent dairy company with three generations of commitment to the health and well-being of the community and the environment.
