Providence Farmstead Creamery

An exciting project is underway just over the North Georgia state line! This farming family of six; C.A., Kirsten, Colin, Erica, Lars, and McCalister Russell are thrilled to announce that construction of their new dairy and creamery is about to begin very soon. While they came from different parts of the country, Georgia native C.A. Russell and California native Kirsten Clauss both shared a common passion for agriculture and family farming. After working together for 30 years in California, raising their family, and developing a nationally recognized Jersey Dairy, the couple and their family have turned their compass back East towards the Blue Ridge Mountains.

The Russell family’s passion for agriculture and love for the Jersey cow started five generations ago. Providence Farmstead represents the next chapter in their farming journey and Jersey legacy. Providence Farmstead is located in the quaint town of Otto, North Carolina. Their compass is aligned around family, animal welfare, environmental sustainability, consumer education, and high quality products. The Russell family is excited to bring exceptional dairy products back to their local community. In doing so, they will be processing and bottling A2 glass-bottled Jersey milk and ice-cream right on their farm. They are looking forward to educating the community in a fun and engaging way by hosting tours and other activities on their farm for all ages. The Russell’s and their team currently raise American Wagyu Beef on their farm. American Wagyu is known for its incredible tenderness, unique marbling, and unmatched flavor. They are pleased to provide a true farm-to-table experience that everyone can access and enjoy. You can find their American Wagyu Beef in local markets such as Yonder Community Market, Andy’s Market, Holistic Mountain Market, Blalock Meats, and many amazing local restaurants. You can keep up with the Russell’s and their plans through Instagram and Facebook @providencefarmsteadnc or their website www.providencefarmstead.com. Providence Farmstead invites you to take part in their journey through the Blue Ridge Mountains.
