Mario Batali’s Eataly, a mega food and wine marketplace in New York city that happens to house a vegetarian restaurant in its headquarters, is staying true to the local economy by supporting local, organic dairy farmers and stocking the Organic NY Milk brand on its shelves.
Organic NY Milk is a produced by NY Foods, along with a variety of organic dairy products like cheese, yogurt and ice cream, as well as free-range eggs.
Organic NY Milk products are produced on small, family farms within a five hour drive of New York city and are USDA certified organic, free of hormones, antibiotics and harmful pesticides.
On a recent blog post, Organic NYFoods co-founder Dean Sparks discussed the opportunity to supply Eataly with their local brand of dairy.
“We’re ecstatic to have this opportunity to bring our sustainable, certified organic world-class dairy products and eggs from small farms right here in New York to such an incredible project. Consumers today are beginning to understand that organic food is better for them and their families, and this is a chance for us to bring sustainability methods and the great farm products of New York state to even more people in a vibrant new food emporium.”
“Shoppers and diners at Eataly have a hands-on opportunity to see, feel and taste the fresh, organic foods that come from farms just a few hours away,” Sparks added. “It’s a perfect place for more New Yorkers and visitors to taste the difference that clean foods make not only to the environment, but to their meals!”
Besides greatly reducing its emissions contributions by sourcing products only a few hours away, Organic NY Milk is kinder to the environment as it’s packaged in HDPE recyclable plastic containers.
