Owners Albert and Vicki Mello mark the third generation of dairy farmers in the family. Son Mike recently graduated from Cal Poly and now helps manage the operation, marking the fourth generation. Daughter Andrea is majoring in Agricultural Business at Cal Poly, and son Steven, a senior in high school, also helps out on the farm. They became 100% certified organic in April 2007, made simple since they always pastured and never used pesticides anyway. They’ve observed that cows allowed to roam on the pasture will actually kick up their feet in delight! For Albert and Vicki, the family tradition is a high priority. They hope it will continue for many more generations.
