... if you care about not buying from factory farms: The Cornucopia Institute. Most helpful to me, especially since I'm buying dairy again, is the Organic Dairy Brand Ratings Scorecard. It's important to remember that just because milk is labeled organic, does NOT mean that the cows are treated well. There are loopholes that factory farms have managed to get through. I found this site via the always helpful Organic Consumers Association site. Just some of the brands to avoid are these, which I see a lot of: Horizon, Nature's Promise (Stop & Shop's Organic label) and Wild Oats Organic. Happily, 365 Organic Milk, which I bought today, gets a Four Cow rating.
