Producer Profile: Corey Lutz of Piedmont Jerseys and Riverbend Creamery

In this episode of the Hoard’s Dairyman Podcast, host Kylene Anderson travels virtually to North Carolina to visit with Corey Lutz of Piedmont Jerseys and Riverbend Creamery. Lutz shares how his family combined a passion for Jersey cattle with on-farm processing to build a thriving dairy business that connects directly with consumers. The conversation explores the journey from milking cows to producing value-added dairy products, including ice cream made right on the farm. Lutz explains why the family chose to create their own ice cream mix rather than purchasing one and how that decision helped shape the identity of Riverbend Creamery. With a focus on quality and transparency, the Lutz family welcomes visitors to the farm to learn more about dairy production and experience their products firsthand. Lutz also discusses the role of pasture-based management in their herd and how their philosophy — “From our grass to your glass” — guides both their farming practices and their creamery brand. By combining strong cow care, direct marketing, and agritourism, the family has created a model that highlights both the tradition and innovation found in today’s dairy industry. Whether you’re interested in Jerseys, on-farm processing, or building stronger connections with consumers, this episode offers an inside look at how one dairy family is bringing the story of milk straight to the public.
