my nieghbor gets milk deliveries....never payed attention to the name on the truck though...next time I see it I'll let you know.

We have a milkman in Duluth..It is called Tim's Dairy. Owned by Tim Waltz on 3517 Trinity Road. Our milkmans name is Ross and we love having him. Saves us trips to the store.Only bad thing is making sure your schedule matches up with milkmans. They also have hormone free milk. and lots of other food products. The number is 218)727-1956

Dahl's Sunrise Dairy is fantastic milk. You can try it out by getting some at the Co-op. The delivery people are really great and someday soon, Wayne Dahl is going to start making ice cream, which will be awesome.

if nothing else this thread finally inspired me to find where Tetzner's Dairy was... finally.

and no they aren't going to deliver to you, but they have mighty fine ice-cream and in a world of ever diminishing sources for HFC free ice-cream that is good.

Tim Waltz and Tim's Dairy is currently being investigated by the MN and WI Depts of agriculture for various and numerous violations.  He has been delivering dairy in WI for over 2 years and has never had a dairy or food license in that state according to inspector for Douglas county.  He delivers to St. Francis Nursing Home in Superior, the Red Mug and the Hammond.  WOW!!!  I wouldn't buy a pint of yogurt from a business that isn't regulated.

No kidding, Wildgoose.

Here is what I know about "Gordy." There is no Gordy, this is a person with a personal beef regarding this business and is under investigation for this at this time. With a potential lawsuit in the offing, "Gordy" needs to examine the laws of karma. The investigators I have talked with have mentioned the implied presence of harassment and its consequences are being looked into. "Gordy" has been in contact with numerous businesses in the community and when attempts are made to reply to his comments, the phone numbers turn out to be "spoofed" and the emails are temporary addresses. Please let it be noted that with all of the investigations that have been conducted to this point in time, there have been no violations that have been instituted against Tim's Dairy and I will continue to use this service and would be willing to meet "Gordy" to discuss this in person if he would like to. With a witness, of course.

Peculiar...Princess Wild Cow in "her" post is apparently a customer of Tim's Dairy, yet knows all about the "numerous" investigations into his business, and has even talked to investigators (plural) and even knows about all the businesses this fake "Gordy" has been in contact with.  This customer even wants to meet "Gordy" to talk about it.  That's brand loyalty hey?  Doesn't really pass the red face test for me.  And yes, posting boy is not my real name.

You are correct Princess WC (to a point).  These are matters of public record if the agency is willing to release info.  They all seem to have their own rules.  The problem is in your earlier statement, "with all of the investigations that have been conducted to this point in time, there have been no violations that have been instituted against Tim's Dairy"  That unfortunately is not true.  I did some research and he was found in violation of many statutes relating to consumer protection, and was issued citations carrying heavy fines.  The issuing agencies are: The Wisc. Dept. of Agric. for failure to obtain a license to distribute dairy or food.  The FMCSA (a div. of the U.S. Dept. of Transportation) issued an "Order to Cease Operation" (OCO) against them in Oct. of 2008.  The Wisc. State Patrol also joined the party in Oct. of this year and stopped them at the Hammond in Superior costing him a few more bucks.  He seems to be in full compliance at present, so we're hoping he gets out there and lands more wholesale accounts.  We'll be watching closely as that happens to make sure everything is done on the up & up.  I am curious about this Ross that mistystarr mentions above.  I think the name is Russ and he used to be with Aysta.  They went out of business on the dairy side.  His name rings a bell from way, way back but not sure why.  I've got  some feelers out on him so will post more later.

hey princess.  what do you mean, "the health issues regarding their products?"  i don't remember reading anything about health issues.  the only thing i ever read about was formalities regarding licenses and inspections.  that's nothing, but product safety is different.  wouldn't that be the dept. of health and not the dept. of ag?

yes you are

What do you mean you have feelers out on him? He is an employee..what does an employee have to do with licensing? What is your stake in this investigation that makes you have feelers out?

nice...that's 4 identities in just this post tim.  at least try to use different words and phrases next time so it's not so blatantly obvious that it's you.  i just don't see any personal attacks here against anyone, except yours (as princess wc) against gordy.  which post should i be reading to find them?  libelous is sure a big word, but unfortunately it does not apply if what's written is true. *SNAP
