Welcome to
Promise Valley
certified organic.
A2A2.
local.
Promise Valley Farm & Creamery is a small, family-run organic dairy farm in the beautiful Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island.
We produce grass-fed, cream-top A2A2 milk and yogurt from our own herd of heritage Guernsey cows.
Organic, Island-raised dairy -- and nothing else.
No chemicals. No additives. Just milk the way it used to be.
Here at Promise Valley Farm + Creamery, we understand that organic matters.
When you consume our low-temperature pasteurized, A2A2 whole milk + yogurt, you can rest assured that it has been certified organic and is free from any harmful additives, preservatives, or chemicals.
We use organic, regenerative farming practices so that our small, heritage breed of grass-fed Guernsey cows can happily + peacefully roam and forage grasses from the hills of 20+ acres of organic pasture in the beautiful Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island, BC.
​
We believe that to be good stewards of our land and animals, we must make the ethical care of all our animals top priority.
​
We also are open + transparent about our farming practices. Stop by during an open barn event to tour our barns + see our cows for yourself.
We also welcome your questions and comments at our farm store, or on social.
​
Knowing where your food has come from + how it's cared for and produced is important to you -- and to us. Thank you for joining us on this journey!
It's time to enjoy dairy again without discomfort.
All of our cows carry only the A2A2 beta-casein protein, which is easier to digest than the A1 protein found in conventional milk.
From our family to yours --
we're proud to bring you
whole, low-temperature pasteurized milk + cream-top yogurt.
​
Our milk undergoes minimal processing.
In our milk and yogurt, the fat stays just as nature intended. Because we skip the high-pressure processing that breaks down fat particles, the cream rises naturally to the top.
​
That’s why you’ll see a thick, golden layer of cream on our yogurt — and why, if you let your milk sit for a day or two, a rich cap of cream will form at the top. You can stir it in, or scoop it off with a spoon.
​
Our customers have made butter from the cream -- what will you do with yours?
Straight from a real milk dispenser!
At our farm store, you won’t find rows of bottled milk — instead, fill your own bottle fresh from our milk dispenser. Bring one from home, or purchase one of our signature glass bottles when you arrive.
Visit us at 7088 Richard’s Trail, Duncan to pour your own organic Guernsey milk, just $4 per litre.

"Hey. Just wanted to sent a note to say I'm so happy I found your farm! I've been milk protein intolerant for 18 years following a GI infection and after years of not being able to eat dairy the A2 milk brand showed up. And then I found your product which has brought so much happiness into my life! Lol I live on the lower mainland so I'm unable to buy your products regularly (nowhere down there sells any A2 products aside from milk) but my mom lives on the north island so I will be loading up on my travels thru Nanaimo. Thank you for existing!!!"

What people are saying
"I just bought your plain yogurt at Country Grocer for the first time. OMG!!! It is the best yogurt I have ever tasted, bar none! And it's locally produced, AND it appears that your guernsey cows are treated humanely and are grass fed. I am a devoted fan! I hope production continues for years into the future!"
