Horizon Organic was America’s first nationally distributed organic dairy brand. Since it was founded in 1991, the company has been a pioneer in the organic movement. Today, as the organic industry evolves, Horizon Organic continues to lead with insight, integrity and unwavering commitment to organic principles.

Company Overview:

• Founded in 1991, Horizon Organic was America’s first national organic dairy brand.
• Together with other industry leaders, our founders played a key role in helping to develop the National Organic Standards and the USDA Organic Seal.
• We have pioneered practices for organic dairy farming and land stewardship, and are privileged to work with some of the industry’s top experts in land conservation, organic agriculture and animal welfare.

• Our Idaho dairy was the first large certified organic dairy in the country, and now supports more than 30,000 organic acres (including the cropland supplying feed to our operations).
• On our Maryland farm, our organic practices have transformed previously mismanaged land with dangerously high phosphorous levels into permanent organic pasture.
• We sponsor numerous non-profit and trade organizations devoted to organic agriculture and related environmental causes: Farm Aid, Midwest Organic and Sustainable Education Service (MOSES), Help Wanted Organic Farmers Campaign, The Organic Center and others.
• We have been recognized with an EPA Green Power Partnership Award for our support of renewable wind energy.

• Through the Horizon Organic Producer Education (HOPE) program, we recruit and support hundreds of organic family farms across the country.
• 80% of our milk is supplied by 363 certified organic family farmers from 18 states across the country. The balance of our milk comes from our two certified organic dairies in Idaho and Maryland.
• 228 additional family farmers are in the process of converting to organic through the HOPE program.

• On our company-owned farms and the farms of our partners, all of the animals that supply Horizon Organic milk enjoy the holistic benefits of organic management practices:
• A preventive approach to healthcare that minimizes illness by providing a sanitary environment, proper nutrition and compassionate, attentive daily care.
• Room to roam outdoors and to display natural behaviors.
• A 100% vegetarian, certified organic diet of active grazing during the growing season, supplemented by certified organic feed.

Customer Reviews

My children love these!!
We've been buying Horizon individual milks for nearly 4 years. My first daughter has never cared much for dairy products, and refuses to drink plain milk, but she'll slurp these up and ask for more! After looking for a flavored alternative to regular milk, I quickly discovered how much junk is added to the popular brands of flavored milks. There are so many artificial flavors, sugar, and perservatives, why even bother? The Horizon milks are not as sugary, but still have great flavor. The part I adore is that they can be stored out of the refrigerator and chilled before serving. That way, they are incredibly portable, especially for travel. All of their flavors are fantastic, but my kids love the strawberry and vanilla best.

Try before you buy.
I thought my daughter would love this. At the local grocery store I bought her a single serving. She wouldn't even swallow it, she spit it out. I gave it to my son and he finished it off.

So if you aren't sure your kids will like it buy a single serving first. It saved me from buying a huge carton of this milk. Other than that, I agree that this milk is great. (My daughter loves the chocolate.)

Good way to get kids to drink milk
I bought these to put in my kids' school lunches. It is a treat for them but I'd rather they were drinking chocolate milk and at least getting the calcium/nutrients from the milk, than soda pop, gatorade (sugar water) or fruit punch.
