Brown Cow (yogurt)

Brown Cow is an American brand of yogurt produced in Londonderry, New Hampshire.[1] The company offers a range of "cream top" yogurt—when the milk used to make yogurt has not been homogenized, a layer of cream rises to the top, forming a rich yogurt cream.[2]

History

Brown Cow was founded in 1975, on a small family farm in Ithaca, New York.[4] "Lily" was the name of the original brown cow from whom the company took its name.[4] In 1989, Brown Cow moved to California.[4] Later, in 2003, Stonyfield Farm, which was largely owned by Danone,[5] acquired Brown Cow.[6][7] In 2014 Brown Cow (Danone) closed its plant in Antioch California and moved operations to Fort Worth Texas.[8] Today, Brown Cow yogurt production moved to Londonderry, New Hampshire, where Stonyfield Farm, Inc. has its headquarters.[1]
