The Petaluma-based company in California’s beautiful Sonoma County has always held themselves to higher industry standards and is a dairy with many firsts. Clover was the first dairy in the United States to become American Humane Certified for the humane treatment of their animals, the first to switch to a 100% plant-based, renewable carton, and the first milk brand to launch a post-consumer recycled (PCR) gallon milk jug, made with 30% recycled plastic.Clover is also known for their involvement in the community, giving back at least 5% of annual profits through Clover Cares and most notably their infamous mascot, Clo the Cow, whose witty puns and billboards have been delighting Northern California for over 50 years! With a history of ‘do-gooding’ built into their DNA, Clover was proud to become a Certified B Corporation in 2016 – meaning that we use business as a force for good by putting people and planet alongside profit.Clover Sonoma is a proud equal opportunity employer.
