Last week our team & Happy (the cow!??) celebrated National Walk & Roll to School Day with Denver Public Schools!?We had a blast handing out milk boxes to kiddos moo-ving their way into school!

This National Farmer’s Day, we honor the hardworking farmers who are at the heart of Horizon Organic. Their dedication to organic farming practices inspires us every day and helps us create the high-quality organic milk families love. Thank you to our farmer partners! #NationalFarmersDay #OrganicFarming #HorizonProud

September is Organic Month! Did you know Horizon Organic became the first national organic dairy brand to offer scholarships designed to support the next generation of organic leaders through the Horizon Organic Producer Education (HOPE) program back in 2007? Today, we’re honored to share this tradition continues with the naming of two HOPE Scholarship recipients for 2024, Rachel Hatch from Freedom, N.Y., and Zackary Tillotson from Pavilion, N.Y. The HOPE Scholarship program encourages young people to seek careers within organic or sustainable agriculture and/or large animal veterinary science. During the past 17 years, Horizon Organic has awarded 105 scholarships and more than $290,000 as part of the HOPE Scholarship program to the children or grandchildren of Horizon producer partners who are working toward a degree in agriculture and related fields. Organic Month is the perfect time to celebrate our two 2024 HOPE Scholarship recipients and all those who are advocating for a more sustainable future. Farmers are the heart of Horizon Organic, and the HOPE program is one way we are helping put farmers first and ensuring organic farmers keep farming for generations to come. We hope you’ll join us in congratulating Rachel and Zackary, and we invite you to learn more about some of our farmer partners, at https://lnkd.in/ecKnNSba. #organicdairy #HorizonOrganic #organicmilk #organicmonth

We’ve been pioneering organic since we started in 1991. Our practices go above and beyond USDA standards for the good of our cows and the land. Our farming family is over 500-farms strong, and they all have a unique story to tell. As Dairy Month comes to a close, we’re proud to highlight the Borbonus Family Farm. Thank you to the Borbonus family and all of our farmer partners! Happy #DairyMonth!?

We're excited to launch our newest campaign featuring our remarkably nutritious lactose-free organic milk. That deserves a *chef's kiss* ???? #Thismilkmeansbusiness

??Earth Day is a special day for us at Horizon Organic - We’ve been all-in organic believers since we started in 1991. Did you know, we were the very FIRST organic dairy brand sold across the country? Yup. In fact, our founders played a critical role in creating the USDA organic standards still followed today: ??Pasture-raised cows graze outside in the fresh air 120 days or more each year ??Cows are not treated with antibiotics or added growth hormones ?? Cows eat an all-organic, non-GMO diet ?? No prohibited pesticides on the farm Today, our farming family is over 500 strong and true to our roots, our products are always organic. We keep on pushing our practices for the good of the horizon we all share, Happy Earth Day ????. #HorizonOrganic #organic #earthday #organicfood

In January, Danone shared the news that it entered into an agreement with Platinum Equity, a U.S.-based global investment firm to sell its Horizon Organic and Wallaby brands. Today, Danone and Platinum Equity shared that the sale is complete, and Platinum Equity is now the owner of Horizon Organic Dairy, LLC. Today marks the start of a new chapter. We are optimistic and excited about our future with Platinum Equity, who is committed to helping us maximize our potential with renewed focus and resources to grow and thrive. We are grateful to Danone for its support through this transition and over the years. And we are always appreciative of our farmers and partners who have been at the heart of our brand for more than 30 years. As the leading organic milk producer in the U.S., Horizon has been committed to delivering innovative, nourishing dairy products that families can rely on. We will continue to uphold that promise and to deliver exceptional products that consumers know and trust.
