Willow Creek FarmHorizon Organic Animal Welfare Program
Quality the Horizon Organic way
Our program includes quality of life and enrichment for our cows. Cow brushes are an example of enrichment–they just make cows’ day-to-day lives better. The program also focuses on optimizing milk production through care, not maximizing it to get more milk.
Quint S FarmHumane Practices Promise
We believe the care and empathy shown to farm workers directly impacts the care and empathy given to the animals in their care. The conditions of farm workers, animal care, and milk quality are key elements of the program.
The Horizon Organic Animal Welfare Program:
- Sets clear non-negotiables with a Humane Practices Promise that farms agree to
- Puts empathy for cows first
- Stresses care for farm workers
- Partners with farms regardless of size
