Cabot To Offer Organic Cheddar (again)

"Cabot, whose parent company is Massachusetts-based Agri-Mark, sees a chance to capture market share in the booming organic dairy market, said Jed Davis, director of marketing for Cabot.

"..There weren't as many outlets for selling organic food. Major supermarkets didn't have natural and organic sections as they do today. There weren't as many organic dairies, either, and milk supply was not always adequate, Davis said.

The organic dairy farming picture has changed significantly in the past seven years. In 2000 there were 47 organic diaries. In early 2007 there were 133, with another 80 in the process of becoming organic, according to the Northeast Organic Farming Association of Vermont."
