In 1921, 320 dairy farmers met in St. Paul, Minnesota, to form the Minnesota Cooperative Creameries Association. Their idea was simple—join together to effectively market and distribute members dairy production across the country. From there, we quickly set our sights on growth. Just eight years after establishing our butter marketing organization, we expanded into the ag services and feed businesses. Our international journey kicked off 52 years later, as we began relaying the lessons we had learned to support local agriculture in developing nations around the world. Those efforts have also helped us expand our commercial business beyond the borders of the United States. Today, our four businesses give us a farm-to-fork view of agriculture. Pair this with our farmer ownership and we are uniquely qualified to fulfill our purpose of feeding human progress around the world, while always delivering on our responsibility to member-owners through our core values. We are united in a common cause, committed to excellence and inspired by our place in the world—but there are no shortcuts. We have never lost sight of the value of a hard days work.

Our family here started with our founders – Marine and Stephanie and their husbands too (#Teamwork). Little by little we grew into a family of 25, joining us from places all over world. And today, our home is in the sunshine state in beautiful Coral Gables, FL - just a few minutes outside of Miami. Not a bad place to call home, right? From day 1, the mission of our founders has been to make eating fruits easier. So we started digging. Did you know that when you ask U.S. consumers which snack they prefer most, fruit is the #1 choice? But in actuality, fruit is the #5 most eaten snack. In fact, 1 out of every 2 Moms in the U.S. doesn`t think her family is eating enough fruit. So what`s stopping us from eating more of the fruit we want?
