How is buying Farmers’ All Natural Creamery products uniquely green? We don’t have to back pedal like many other companies to try to keep up with current market interests in “going green”. Most of our farmers are Amish, so many of the principles of green living are just a natural way of life to them, and have been for generations.  

Simplicity: One of the major tenets of Amish life is keeping to the basics, staying close to nature and family. Many of the things you might consider to be everyday items never even enter an Amish home.

Community: Community is a huge part of the Amish way of life. From farming, to canning, to barn raising, Amish come together to make things happen.

Waste: Even if it wasn’t for their belief in not wasting anything, the Amish would still be far ahead of the general population, merely by the number of items they make by hand instead of purchasing in stores. The Amish are well-known for their quality craftsmanship.

Energy: Alternative fuels and energy sources are not an issue for the Amish as they do not drive cars or use electricity. Their homes and buildings are built to maximize the use of natural sunlight.
