From Organic Fields to Coffee Mugs: New Organic Valley® Creamers Made with Oats Sourced Directly from Organic Family Farms in the Heartland

Farmer-Owned Cooperative Known for its Organic Dairy Takes a Bold Step into Plant-Based Innovation

LA FARGE, Wis., Jan. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Organic Valley® — the organic farmer-owned cooperative known for its award-winning dairy creamers — has extended the product line into oat-based creamers. Today, the co-op announced the launch of its first-ever organic oat-based product line: Organic Valley® Oat Creamers with oats sourced directly from its U.S. organic family farms. The new oat creamers are available nationwide beginning this month and will debut in four delicious, crave-worthy flavors — vanilla, caramel, oatmeal cookie, and cinnamon spice.

"We're excited to introduce the new Organic Valley Oat Creamers because we know that many of our loyal Organic Valley milk buyers also purchase plant-based beverages, which makes it a natural evolution for our cooperative," said Laurie Drake, vice president of marketing, Organic Valley. "We're always looking to raise the bar with product innovation and now our consumers have even more creamer options in a plant-based form."

With 30 calories per serving, these dairy-free, nut-free, and lactose-free oat creamers from Organic Valley are crafted for coffee and tea lovers who crave a smooth, creamy texture that froths perfectly for lattes, cappuccinos, or their favorite cup of joe.

What makes the new Organic Valley® Oat Creamers truly unique is how they're made. Organic Valley is proud to be sourcing oats directly from its own organic family farms and works hand in hand with its oat farmers to grow crops sustainably, ensuring every step — from crop to carton — upholds the integrity and quality that consumers trust from the brand. The Organic Valley®oats are grown in the cool, dry climates of the Midwest and done so without the use of GMOs, toxic pesticides, or herbicides, all in compliance with USDA organic standards.

"We know consumers care about where their food comes from," Drake said. "By sourcing organic oats from our own family farms, we know our product from crop to carton. The new oat creamers are more than a new product line — we're pushing forward our cooperative's mission to offer innovative and delicious organic products while promoting regional farm diversity and supporting organic family farms with sustainable practices."

Like all Organic Valley products, consumers can feel good knowing that when they choose Organic Valley — including the new oat creamers — they are helping protect where our food comes from.

Organic Valley® Oat Creamers will be available as 32-ounce cartons in grocery stores nationwide starting January 2025.
