The Kentucky Agricultural Development Board has approved $478,560 in state agriculture development funds for J.D. Country Milk to expand its Logan County dairy processing facility. The company currently supplies milk to high-end markets such as Whole Foods under the Rebekah Grace label and has recently negotiated a deal with Kroger to provide milk under its Private Selection label, which is set to be test-marketed in 22 stores. Expanding its processing facility will enable J.D. Country Milk to meet potential future demands from Kroger while also providing room for the company to branch out into the production of buttermilk, 2 percent milk, skim milk, butter and cream. The company presently produces only whole and chocolate milk.
