White Cow Dairy

Monday, May 28th, 2007

White Cow Dairy at Murray’s CheeseWhat a surprise to be perusing the shelves at Murray’s Cheese on Bleecker in Manhattan and run across yogurt and custard from White Cow Dairy in East Otto. We just happened to be in Murray’s the first day that White Cow products were available. What a treat!

I met Patrick Lango about 3 years ago when he was just getting serious about making great food from his milk. I immediately fell in love with his passion and dedication to quality. Seeing his fresh dairy foods on the shelves in Murray’s brought things full circle and was the culmination of a long, difficult process Patrick had to endure to make his dream a reality and bring his foods to market.

Patrick epitomizes the notion of food artisan and wholesome local foods. I know where the happy cows really live, not in a tv commercial but on the top of a hill in East Otto, NY.

Patrick’s products are avialable at Murray’s, the Wintermarket on Elmwood, the Elmwood-Bidwell Farmers’ Market, the Lexington Co-op, and Alice Arlow’s Country Store in East Concord, NY. Please do yourself a favor and try the dairy foods from the White Cow Dairy.
