Sustainable practices to cut emissions across our operations
Our organization strives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and optimize resource use throughout all its operations, dairies, manufacturing plants, and supply chain partners.
In 2024, we made major strides by reducing our total greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint to 800,041 metric tons of CO₂e, with the majority tied to on-farm activities and supply chain inputs.
Through targeted action like methane capture, renewable energy use, and composting, we’ve avoided over 49,000 metric tons of CO₂e.
→ Unmatched Efficiency
This includes investing in renewable energy (solar and bio-gas), improving energy efficiency, and encouraging responsible feed sourcing that shrinks our overall carbon footprint.
By continually measuring, bench marking, and innovating around energy and emissions, we’ve built long-term resilience while staying true to our commitment to producing wholesome dairy products sustainably.

Biodigester Deployment
One of our dairies operates a private digester capturing 95% of flush manure methane, total methane captured avoids 36,105 mt CO₂e annually, and produces biogas that avoids 9,794 mt CO₂e when used for on-site power, generating Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) & Renewable Identification Number (RIN) credits.
Two dairies have each achieved 100% manure capture, with biogas used for on-site power or pipeline injection.

Renewable Electricity
7.7% of our total electricity demand is met by renewables, highlighted by:
4 MW solar array at one dairy, offsetting ~30% of its needs
2 MW solar at another dairy, delivering 94% renewable supply
Biogas-powered generation at a third dairy, covering 79% of on-site demand
