Farm Animals to visit, feed the goats and ducks and geese. Enjoy sitting next to our pond and waterfall. Calder Dairy was originally established in 1946 by William Graham Stewart Calder. Milk was purchased from surrounding dairy farms, processed and bottled at the plant at 1020 Southfield Road in Lincoln Park, Michigan. Home delivery was available throughout the Downriver Area. Although we had to

replace our fleet of Divco Trucks with more modern delivery trucks, unmistakable with their big Holstein black markings and bold "Calder" logo. We continue to make home deliveries, just like in the "old days". As the years went by, a farm was purchased in Carleton, Michigan, originally as a weekend retreat for the family and eventually as a spot to retire to. A Brown Swiss Cow was purchased to help keep the grass short, she had a calf and from there we steadily built up a herd of Holstein and Brown Swiss cows. Gradually, the Calder herd continued to grow and today we milk 150 cows. All of our cows are fed a high quality, home grown forage and grain diet with lots of T.L.C. The Farm currently supplies all of Calder Dairy's needs to produce our great products for you to enjoy. Milk from our Cows at the Farm in Carleton is hauled to the Dairy in Lincoln Park right in our own Milk Tanker. From there it is transferred to a refrigerated bulk tank in the plant, and then it is processed in small batches. All our milk is pasteurized; however our milk contains no antibiotics or artificial hormones. We bottle milk in old-fashion recyclable glass bottles and have a variety of products you can have delivered to your home, you can pick them up at several wholesale locations in the area or you can stop on in at the farm or dairy to say hello! The Dairy and Farm are still family owned and operated with two generations involved on a daily basis.
