How it does good
NYC’s last dairy goes plant-based
Dairy production often leads to food waste and negative environmental impacts, not to mention questions about chemical additives and animal welfare. With this in mind, Henry Schwartz reinvented his family dairy, in business for just shy of a century, as a maker of plant-based dairy alternatives. Elmhurst 1925 began with its distinctive HydroRelease™ process, which crafts nutrient-rich, nut, grain, and seed-based milks using only water. And that’s not all. Everything Elmhurst makes with this process is either sold or used in other products, meaning zero waste. Their facility is hydro-powered, their plant sources are fully traceable, and their packaging is 100% recyclable.
Elmhurst began as a hand-bottled, hand-delivered milk producer, and they’re hanging onto that simplicity today. They source all their nuts, seeds, and grains from North American farmers (except for their cashews). Their oat farmers agree not to use Glyphosate, a toxic herbicide commonly used to curb weed and grass growth, on any of their crops. Elmhurst also uses hydropower in their plant and aseptic packaging to keep their products free from preservatives.

They regularly donate their products to food banks, hospitals, shelters, first responders, and the NAACP. Their Mission Transition is rallying others to replace dairy and meat with plant-based alternatives.

About the Brand
Elmhurst 1925
When the original Elmhurst Dairy closed its doors in Queens in 2016, Henry Schwartz moved his father’s company to Buffalo and reimagined it to embrace the future of milk: plant-based dairy. Using a game-changing process developed by food technologist Dr. Cheryl Mitchell, Elmhurt 1925 uses more of the source grain, nut, or seed, and the finished product is superior nutrition and flavor with fewer ingredients.

Look Forward to Drinking This
I can't have dairy because of a breastfed baby with allergies. After trying all kinds of plant milks, I didn't think a milk replacement would every really cut it until I found this. Now I look forward to my breakfast and coffee with cashew milk so much. It's creamy, nutty, and delicious!

United StatesCashew Milk by Elmhurst
I love this product. When I first started to use nut milks in my coffee years ago, I experimented with all kinds and found cashew to be the creamiest and most delicious. I made my own until I discovered Elmhurst. They use only cashews and water. No fillers at all, unlike many of the others. I love this product and recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious milk alternative.
