"BETTER THAN ORGANIC?"  

“HARTZLER products are better than Organic!”

Strong comment…..
In this world where everyone is looking to jump on the latest industry trend to increase sales, it seems that the term “Organic” may be a bit confusing to the buying public.

At HARTZLER FAMILY DAIRY, we appreciate the fact that our customers recognize us as a company that provides a product that is, as it says on our Milk bottle, “as Nature intended”.

When Harold Hartzler made the decision in 1964, over thirty years ago, to stop using chemical pesticides, herbicides, and artificial growth hormones on the family farm it was not a marketing decision. He did it because he had witnessed the harmful effect of chemical run-off on a neighboring farm after a storm. He decided to farm, “as Nature intended”.

• We have used no Chemical pesticides or herbicides on our family farms for over 32 years.
• All HARTZLER FAMILY DAIRY products are Artificial Growth Hormone Free.

• Our milk is gently pasteurized at low temperature to assure the safety of the product without negatively affecting the flavor of the milk.
• We do not homogenize our glass bottled milk. This leaves the cream is it’s natural state, allowing the body to digest it easily.
