Our Story

A Family Effort

My wife and I and our children own and operate a small family farm in the beautiful Juniata River Valley. (McVeytown, Mifflin County). We purchased the farm from my father in 2020 and due to the uncertainty of the dairy industry, we decided to branch out into on farm processing. We started making yogurt in our kitchen for a while and sold it to friends and family. The demand kept growing until we had to decide what to do. Do we quit or build a facility to handle our needs? The door opened for us to pursue this avenue, and on November 4, 2021, we opened our doors.......

Horningford Creamery was born............

Providing our local community and beyond with fresh QUALITY dairy products

At Horningford Creamery, we bring you freshly-pastured whole milk from our own dairy herd. Our creamery is located right on our farm, ensuring the freshest products possible. We pump our fresh rBST-free milk less than 50ft from our milk house to our state-certified creamery, where we pasteurize our creamy whole milk, and create our fresh yogurts, squeaky cheese curds, kefir, and iced coffee.

Get a Taste of Farm Life

Our cows are housed in a tie stall barn where each cow has her own individual space, providing us with the ability to give individualized care. The cows have access to exercise and pasture, weather permitting. We feed them a Total Mix Ration which is a healthy combination of haylage, silage, corn, roasted soybeans & mixture of nutrients. We work closely with a nutritionist to make sure our cows remain healthy. We look at our cows like we do our family. If one of them is sick we don’t want to watch them suffer and do nothing so we will give her a shot of antibiotics until she is better. During this process her milk will be dumped and then tested until it no longer shows any trace of antibiotics. At that point her milk will once again be used.
