SALEM — Owners of the Battenkill Valley Creamery were recognized for producing the highest quality milk in the state earlier this week at the State Fair in Syracuse.
The Salem-based creamery's milk was compared with milk from nearly two dozen milk producers by officials from Cornell University's Department of Food Science, who tested milk samples throughout the year before announcing the award earlier this week.
Seth McEachron, owner of the creamery, said on Wednesday that he was humbled to get the award just two years after the creamery opened as a complement to the family's dairy farm.
Milk bottling and processing began there in February 2008.
