Organic Valley

Back in 1988, Organic Valley’s seven founding farmers were concerned about the devastating loss of family farms in America. So these pioneering organic farmers founded a cooperative whose mission was to save family farms through the production of the highest quality organic foods. 

In 2013, we celebrate 25 years of cultivating goodness. We have learned along the way that though our challenges are many, our solutions are endless when we work together for what is best for all.

Twenty-five years later, the 1,800-plus farmer-owners of CROPP Cooperative / Organic Valley are still guided by that mission.

Their product offerings have grown to include award-winning milk, soy, cheese, butter, spreads, creams, yogurt, eggs, produce, and juice. Organic Valley products can be found in supermarkets, natural foods stores and food cooperatives nationwide.

In April 2024, the Department of Labor issued rules (“2024 Rules”) that increased the salary level that had to be paid to executive, administrative, or professional employees so that the employees were not entitled to overtime pay under the FLSA. The 2024 Rules did not change the primary duties tests, nor did they change the salary basis test. On Friday, November 15, 2024, a federal court in Texas struck down the entirety of the 2024 Rules and ruled his decision applied nationwide.
