Homeland Creamery is family owned and operated by the Bowmans. 

" We are six and seventh generation farmers who have raised and milked dairy cows on the same homestead for nearly three quarters of a century.  In the earlier days, our grandfathers’ family started selling “barnyard milk” from a half-dozen dairy cows that were milked by hand.  Today, we partner with our longtime friends from Wright Farms in Franklinville, NC, Gerringer Farms in Gibsonville, NC, and Langley Farms in Staley, NC to provide our customers with the same high quality, local milk. Wright, Gerringer, and Langley share the same farming practices and ethics as Homeland Creamery. We are proud to work with local dairy farms and consider them family. The cows are our family too; we take pride in the care and management of the herd producing our milk!” 

Our Natural Approach to Farming helps You! Being sustainable means the way we farm helps protect our cows and the environment.

• We use manure as natural fertilizer on our fields which makes happy crops.
  
  
• We practice no till soil conservation which means that we don’t till or plow the soil to eliminate weeds when we prepare our fields for sowing. (This no till process helps with soil erosion and water runoff, improves wildlife habitat, and helps reduce greenhouse gases and fuel use.)
  
  
• Because we spread manure on our fields, it attracts earthworms and other earth moving insects which do the cultivating for us.
  
  
• We also reuse water from our creamery to wash our milking parlor.
