“At Painterland Farms, we practice organic and regenerative farming and put our energies in putting the land and animals first. Our skyr is USDA certified organic, but in everything we do we go above and beyond organic requirements,” said Painterland Sisters co-founder Stephanie Painter. “We source all of our organic milk from our fourth generation regenerative family farm and others like it in Pennsylvania and we’re very committed to transparently sharing our restorative farming practices.”
“From all-natural fertilizers for the soil, to cows that graze freely on open, rotational pastures, we carefully think through every action and its impact on food, the environment, the animals, and our community,” added co-founder Hayley Painter. “All that goodness goes into each cup of skyr.”
Within a year of launching Painterland Sisters has already sold over $1 million in skyr and plans to continue expansion nationwide. It is sold in over 45 states nearing 1,500 locations. The brand launched in March 2022.
