We are a locally owned and operated facility that has remained in the family for over 150 years! In 1838, George Marburger Sr. arrived in Baltimore from Germany. In 1842, he purchased 100 acres of land in Evans City, Pennsylvania $1.25 per acre. In 1923, his son Adam, who had previously maintained the area raising draft horses, converted the farm to a dairy operating facility. Just over ten years later, Adam and his wife Georgia (see recipe for Grandma Georgia’s Orange Cookies) bought a small dairy at May Stop and produced three cases of quart bottles on the first day of operation! Milk was shipped to the nearby city of Pittsburgh via the Harmony Line streetcars. The operation grew and a few years later the dairy was moved to the homestead farm where it remains today. Adam’s sons Martin, Vernon, and Joe operated the dairy as partners until the first death of Joe in 1968 and Vernon in 1983. Today, Martin along with his children and grandchildren are proprietors of the establishment.

Although our own facility milks well over one hundred cows twice a day, it is not enough to fulfill the demand. We ship in milk from approximately seventy nearby farms, all of whom have signed rBST free pledge. Four days a week 25,000+ gallons of milk are processed, bottled, cooled, shipped, or delivered with the help of over ninety employees.

So where does it all go? Nearly 1800 home deliveries are made each week and over 2500 schools, hospitals, restaurants and other businesses are served as well.
