Oakridge Dairy Exposed as Factory Farm

A new PETA exposé of Oakridge Dairy—the largest dairy in Connecticut, which purports to be “[w]here happy cows make great milk”—reveals that the factory farm perpetually confines thousands of cows on concrete and denies them access to the outdoors. Why? So their manure can be collected as part of a dubious “clean energy” scheme.

Update (January 10, 2025): Following a cease-and-desist letter from PETA, Oakridge Dairy LLC removed multiple false and misleading claims from its website about the welfare of the thousands of cows it keeps constantly confined on concrete. That the mega dairy is “[w]here happy cows make great milk” and that the cows there are provided “plenty of elbow room” and an “optimal living habitat” are just some of the false and deceptive claims that Oakridge has removed from its website following PETA’s letter. Oakridge also took down a video claiming that it “ensures the wellbeing” of the cows and creates a “haven” for them.
