About Straus Family Creamery

Straus Family Creamery sets the gold standard for organic dairy. As the first certified organic creamery west of the Mississippi, they craft milk, yogurt, butter, and more with uncompromising integrity. Their products start with milk from pasture-based cows on small Northern California family farms—then are minimally processed to preserve taste and nutrition. Sustainability isn’t an afterthought—it’s at the heart of everything they do.

By offering Straus products, Thrive Market supports a regenerative food system rooted in quality, transparency, and long-term care for the planet.

Certified organic and non-GMO
From pasture-based cows on family farms
