About Oberweis Dairy

At Oberweis, quality starts with simplicity—less processing means more flavor and a healthier product for your family. Our farms never use artificial hormones or preservatives, and our gentle pasteurization method preserves essential nutrients for a pure, delicious taste.

Freshness is our priority. Every day, we receive milk from local farms, then process, bottle, and deliver it straight to your doorstep or grocery aisle. This commitment has made Oberweis a trusted name in dairy since 1927.

Our dedication to great taste extends to our iconic reusable glass bottles, which keep milk colder and fresher for longer. With family farms producing the highest-quality dairy, you’ll always have the best-tasting milk on your table.
