I know the Avalon Dairy sells organic milk, cheese, butter etc. www.avalondairy.com - Their retail store is at 7985 North Fraser Way, Burnaby, BC. You can sometimes get their products at places like Save On Foods.

I haven't been to their new location but I do miss the old charm of the Killarney store.

I like how their products come in glass bottles. It seems to taste better after an extended period of time in the fridge, rather than your typical box container.
Their store also has ice cream made from their milk and it's pretty good lol.

allot of the time organic milk gets dumped into the regular non organic milk cause they have to much.
Don't see the hype about organic milk Posted via RS Mobile |

The one you want is Gort's Gouda. It comes in glass bottles and the only milk you can get is full fat (how milk was always intended to be). It also is healthier and doesn't actually contribute to obesity and high cholesterol like everyone believes. I get mine over at Whole Foods

Cheaper? Not by a whole lot. Maybe < $0.50 at most and if at all? I haven't been there in a while.
