Limestone Organic Creamery
Limestone Creamery is a 3rd generation organic dairy farm. Their farm was established over 50 years ago in 1967 by Lilianne and Gerry Grooms. Together their children and grandchildren Francis, Kathie, Patrick, and Olivia Groenewegen now have the honor and responsibility to care for the land and the animals.
30 years ago they transitioned to organic agriculture. They are working to create a healthy, sustainable soil. A soil to support healthy diverse grass pastures for our cows to graze. They encourage biodiversity in their fields and hedgerows and they can see how it attracts pollinators. The folks at Limestone Creamery are building a better farm ecosystem to address the climate crisis.
Their milk is grass-fed.
12 years ago we built a dairy plant. They began processing their own milk. Community support has been wonderful! Through that support we’ve been able to involve 40 fellow farmers and makers, hire 18 people, help to rebuild the local food system and strengthen food security. 2020 has shown them how fragile that food system is.
The creamery includes a home delivery service and farm store where they offer many local and organic whole foods. Ice cream is their latest addition and it has proven to be a remedy for 2020.
