Dora, George and Jana
George and Dora McClelland, and their daughter, Jana, run their dairy ranch on Bodega Avenue in the Two Rock Valley in Sonoma County, CA, carrying on the dairy farming tradition started by George’s parents Robert and Lillian , who emigrated from Ireland in the early ‘30s. Robert and Lillian started the family dairy in Marin County in 1938 and in 1965 moved it to its current location in Two Rock.
George is proud his children are carrying on the dairy tradition. Jana, a graduate of Agriculture Business from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, is now in charge of managing employees, implementing safety programs, overseeing show and registered cows, as well as running the breeding and genetic programs. Their son, Robert and his wife, Jolynn, have their own organic dairy in Valley Ford in western Sonoma County and are also Clover Stornetta producers.
“Clover Stornetta Farms is on the cutting edge of sustainable agriculture and has created a niche market for our high-quality milk. We will never be the biggest dairy, but we will be the best. The Clover Stornetta North Coast Excellence (NCE) program sets us apart from others who don’t have our quality. It shows we care about our cows and the environment.”
