Dairy
History
Terrace BC
Frank
Brother's Dairy
aka: Frank Bros. Dairy
When I first moved here we ordered milk from
Frank's Dairy
It was delivered to the door, unpasteurized, raw milk.
It came in glass milk bottles, and had the cream on the top.
The farm buildings still exist today,
but for many years it has not been a farm or dairy.
Of course the Frank family were very settlers in this area.
Manager Ted Hidber in 1971
They supplied 1,000 families with milk at that time.
Mrs Lanfear, and Miss French
sold Milk and Eggs in the Terrace area,
from ca 1915 to 1931
Lakelse Dairy
aka: Lakelse Dairy Products
Actually located in Kitimat, not sure where their cows were
kept,
but this ad shows they were starting deliveries in Terrace
Nov 10, 1966
Norman Gauthreau was the Terrace Agent shown in ad below.
A Mrs. Walter Jordan established a dairy by
the Lake, ca Aug 1933.
She had trouble meeting the summer demand.
Her and her husband moved onto what was
the Bishop Farm at that time.
This is what I knew until I found the article
linked below.
Turns out they were a reconstituting plant, adding water
and butter fat to skim milk powder.
this article says Jim Thom and his family operated at this plant.
