Lamer's Dairy distributes their dairy products to the public under the name "Dairyland's Best" and is sold in grocery stores throughout Wisconsin.
Lamer's Dairy proudly boasts five generations of family tradition — producing the absolute highest quality milk and dairy products. Always produced with respect to the legacy of their forefathers, Lamer's Dairy produces their milk products with unwavering pride in their profession with the utmost respect for their ancestors and their family tradition.
Lamer's Dairy was started by Jacob Lamers, in 1913, in the village of Kimberly, Wisconsin. In the early days, raw milk was distributed to the villagers in "preserve cans" which was personally delivered to families, schools and businesses — "farm-fresh to table", every morning.
A few years later, Lamers Dairy began to deliver their milk using a horse and buggy as their milk cart. Then in 1919, they purchased their first milk truck for making daily deliveries. In 1931, Lamers began selling their milk products with the first glass milk bottles, imprinted with their logo. The following year, they purchased their first mechanical refrigeration equipment — to ensure that their milk was always kept at the ideal temperature to maintain the freshest possible milk in the village.
In 1933, the traditional way of hand bottling milk was transformed to an automatic bottling system, one of the first of its kind in Wisconsin, vastly improving Lamers Dairy efficiency and productivity. One year later, Lamers installed equipment to begin to pasteurize their milk. Then, in 1941, they introduced homogenized milk to the local market while upgrading their facilities - nearly doubling the size of their building.
Lamer's Dairy expanded their building once again in 1950, installing quality testing for all of their dairy products. Finally, in 1998, after 48 years of tremendous success, building a powerful, respected brand, the Lamers family moved their production facility to its current location on Speel School Road, in Appleton, Wisconsin.
Lamer's Dairy believes in supporting local, family dairy farms — who produce only the finest quality milk with pride and care. They work with a few carefully chosen family farms located within a 30-mile radius of their production center. They believe in supporting their local community and pay their local milk providers a premium price for producing the highest quality milk from healthier cows.
All of the milk and dairy products offered by Lamers Dairy are "Farmer Certified rBGH-Free. This means that their network of local dairy farmers never use artificial hormones or growth stimulants so that their cows produce more milk. It is a Lamers Dairy family tradition - to produce milk the natural, traditional way. This is why their milk products are renowned and respected all over Wisconsin.
Lamer's Dairy uses their own drivers to deliver their variety of premium milk to both restaurants and retailers alike. Their milk goes from the farm to the table in the shortest possible time —ensuring that their customers enjoy the freshest milk products possible.
Not surprisingly, Lamers is an award-winning Dairy Farm. In both 2015 and 2016, Lamers Dairy "Dairyland's Best" brand won the First Place Prize in the prestigious World Dairy Expo Championship for its Whole Chocolate milk. Also, in 2013, they won another First Place award for their White Milk.
