Shatto Milk Company is a small family-owned and operated dairy farm located just north of the Kansas City metropolitan area. Our family has been farming here for more than 100 years and began a dairy farm more than 80 years ago. In June 2003 our family began processing our own milk on the farm. We decided to bottle our own milk for the purpose of providing our customers with the freshest and best tasting dairy products possible.
Shatto Milk Company products can be described by one simple statement that we have adopted as our motto: MILK AT ITS FINEST. Our family goes to great lengths to insure that the products we sell are truly the freshest and best tasting.
No Hormones?
Yes Whey.
Our cows are never treated with rBST (recombinant bovine somatotropin) or rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone).
Our Milk.
Our Cows.
No offense to the bovines across the hill, but our milk only comes from our cows located on our family farm.
Udder to Store.
Under 24.
Shatto Milk can go from the cow to the store in as little as 12 hours. To beat that time, you’d need your own cow.
Why Glass?
It stays cool, it looks cool and it’s cool with the environment. We wash and reuse our bottles as often as they are returned. Pretty cool, eh?
*No significant difference has been shown between milk derived from rbST-treated and non-rbST-treated cows.
To give you a true feel for where our milk comes from, how it is processed, and our packaging methods, we made a concerted effort to create a transparent processing plant. Our processing plant is a place where everyone is invited to visit and see firsthand how Shatto Milk Company produces the freshest milk around. Visit our Tours and Special Events page for more information about touring our farm.
We invite you, your family, and all of your friends to visit us on our farm, take a tour or just check out our country store Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
