In 2004, third-generation Plano dairy farmer Todd Moore beginning crafting artisan dairy products. He called the company Lucky Layla Farms. Now Moore has just put the finishing touches on Springville Farm, a state-of-the-art diary farm, so that he can start offering his local Lucky Layla goodies across the Southwest.
Springville Farm is kind of a resort for those of the bovine persuasion. The cattle there freely roam 1,180 acres of grassland and have access to two, 3-acre cooling lakes. Moore's Guernsey and Jersey cows swim (or float) in the lakes to keep cool.
But it's not solely about the Guernsey and Jersey cows' comfort. Naturally cooling the cows causes them to eat more grass and thus produce more milk. And it's that milk that becomes the farm-fresh, all-natural Lucky Layla products, including their drinkable yogurt.
The drinkable yogurt is made with fruit pulp and active probiotics (LD. Bulgaricus and S.S. Thermophilus) and clocks in at 200 calories per serving. They make them in a heap of flavors: banana, blackberry, blueberry, custard apple, guava, mango, passion fruit, piña colada, strawberry, peach, plain and pure (no sugar). Locally, it can be found at Whole Foods, Central Markets, Sprouts and Lucky Layla Farms Store.
