Find Us At The Farmers Market<\/span><\/h2>\n

Our roots are based in local farmers markets around Maryland. We got our start bringing dairy and other farm products to over 10 markets each week before we started delivering farmers-market quality products directly to customers\u2019 doorsteps. We still love to attend local markets, where we chat with people about farming, swap recipes, and get to know our customers better. Many of our home delivery vendor partnerships took root at these markets and continue to do so!<\/span><\/p>\n

Creating An
Agricultural Legacy<\/h2>\n

We believe it\u2019s important and worth the effort to help create a sustainable agricultural community, starting with our farm as well as participating in local organizations.<\/p>\n

Our family has a deep history with local and state farming organizations; South Mountain Creamery was founded by Randy and Karen Sowers, and Karen\u2019s father Fred Beachley was a founding member of the Frederick County Soil Conservation District committee. Today, Randy and Karen\u2019s son Ben, who manages our daily farm operations, serves as a Chairman for that very same committee.<\/p>\n

Because we feel strongly about keeping up to date on farming best practices in land conservation and environmental stewardship, members of our family also serve on the Frederick County Agriculture Business Council, and Sam and Jeramiah Sowers, third-generation family members, are both a part of the Future Farmers of America!<\/p>\n

Check out our Farming Practices page to learn more about our commitment to healthy and sustainable agriculture.<\/p>\n
