Albert Straus takes his parents' life mission of caring for the earth through sustainable food production seriously. Albert has time and again proven himself an innovator in the world of sustainable food production. After converting his family dairy to organic, (the first one west of the Mississippi), he introduced reusable glass bottles which so far have prevented over 10 million pounds of waste from going into landfills. On top of that, in 2004, he installed a methane digester which converts byproducts of his herd's manure to electricity. He now powers his creamery entirely from this extremely renewable resource. And as if that were not enough, he even fuels his electric car from cow manure.
