Description

~ Springfield Creamery, the makers of Nancy's Yogurt, is a family owned and operated company, located in Eugene, Oregon. Founded in 1960, Springfield Creamery strives to create premium, probiotic-rich food. ~

We often remind ourselves of how fortunate we are to be able to source many of our fresh, natural and organic ingredients locally from nearby farms and businesses. We have actually done this from the start of our business in 1960 – carefully selecting ingredients that make sense for our company, our customers and our community. I guess you can say that, whether we meant to be or not, Springfield Creamery has been sustainable long before it was cool!

Nancysware

Those sturdy Nancy’s Yogurt containers have a fond following across the country- known to many as ‘Nancysware’ and are continually reused over and over again for anything from leftovers to paperclips. We continue to do our part in researching different plastic options for our yogurt containers, keeping abreast of new and emerging sustainable options. At this time, we continue to feel that the reusable HDPE #2 plastic grade containers are the best option. Also all Nancy’s containers are:

  • Absolutely free of all BPAs and chemical estrogens
  • One of the few plastics really being recycled in many communities
