My grandfather, Edward Kaveny was the general manager of the Englewood branch of Bowman Dairy in the 1920s 1930s. My husband's great-grandfather, John Klasema, worked at Bowman Dairy in Chicago for 40+ years. He delivered milk with a horse drawn wagon, I've been told, on the Miracle Mile. My Great Grandfather, August Lundsteadt,was the safety manager at the dairy in Chicago for 40 years,and retired in 1955.

What is the history of Bowman Dairy?

Bowman Dairy is one of the oldest family-owned and operated dairy farms in the United States. Established in 1882 in the small town of New Berlin, Wisconsin, the farm has been in continuous operation for over 135 years. The Bowman family has been involved in the dairy business since the early 19th century when John Bowman purchased a small parcel of land near New Berlin and began to raise cows and produce milk. His son, Henry Bowman, took over the farm in 1882 and expanded the business, introducing new breeds of cows, building a creamery, and establishing a herd of purebred Holsteins. By the early 20th century, Bowman Dairy had become the largest dairy in Wisconsin, and one of the largest in the country. The dairy was known for its high-quality milk and butter products, which were sold in both local and national markets. In the 1950s, the Bowman family diversified their operations and began to produce cheese. The cheese was made from the milk produced on the farm and became popular in the local area. As the business grew, the family expanded their production and distribution, eventually becoming one of the top cheese producers in the state. Today, Bowman Dairy is still owned and operated by the Bowman family, and is a leader in the dairy industry. The farm continues to produce high-quality milk and cheese products, and has earned national recognition for its commitment to sustainability and animal welfare. Bowman Dairy also produces a wide variety of other dairy products, such as ice cream, yogurt, cottage cheese, and sour cream.


Where on the Southside of Chicago was Bowman Dairy located circa 1910 to 1930?

On the far south side Chicago a building bears the name bears the name Bowman Dairy. It is located at the intersection of 103rd South , Beverly Ave. ( Ashland Ave.) , and Vicennes ave. The name currently covered with a hanging temp sign but I ride pass it daily. Channel 11 aired a fund raiser to purchase videos of Chicago's history circa 1910 and 1930 with a small donation. I saw a photo of that same intersection in the 1930's.I believe the Bowman Dairy was actually north. There is an area called Bowmanville north of Foster and east of Western.There was a Bowman Dairy Co. at 43rd Street South and State Street in Chicago. There was also one at 66th street and Wentworth Avenue. My father delivered routes from both garages from about 1945 up to when they closed. I'm not sure when these facilities were built or went into operation. These were mainly garages for the milk wagons and horses and later the milk trucks. Milk was not processed in these locations. My Brothers and I helped my Dad deliver milk each morning. Dad died but Mom remembers names of others that worked there and are still living. Want more info, contact me.The company I work for has a 1917 Walker Electric Truck with original Bowman Dairy lettering still on it. The address given is 140 West Ontario. I would be interested in learning more about the Bowman Dairy to prepare the truck for a museum exhibit.ThanksDave meierMy grandfather Edward Kaveny, general manager of Englewood branch of Bowman Dairy co. was reported to have instituded individual serving glass bottles of milk to be distributed to Chicago schools for student mealtimes.

How many gallon in a milk can?

4, 5, 7, and 8 gallon milk cans were the most common. However, the term "a milk can" is not a standard of measurement outside the local environment in which the particular cans are being used. In many instances the Milk Company, or processor owned the cans and provided them for the surrounding dairies to use. So, the size was determined by the equipment available for handling the cans.
