Is Chobani Greek Yogurt organic?
While Chobani Greek Yogurt isn’t organic, we follow many organic production practices: • Our products are free of antibiotics and synthetic growth hormones (no rBST). • Many of the farms that we get our milk from keep their cows in free-range conditions from springtime to winter’s first snow fall. (It gets too cold here in Upstate NY to keep cows outside all year long. They would need really big sweaters!) However, to us it’s more important to support local farmers than to be labeled organic. We choose to work with a dairy co-op that sources all of the milk we use in Chobani from farms located within 15 miles of our plant as opposed to having organic milk shipped to us from farther away.
