It was 1939 and Max and Verda Foster took a chance in pursuit of a dream. Borrowing $1,000 on a life insurance policy, the couple placed a down payment on a small abandoned 80-acre farm south of Modesto in California's San Joaquin Valley. The operation, which began with a few chickens and turkeys, quickly expanded. In 1941, the Fosters added an all-Jersey cow dairy and distributed fresh milk in chilled glass bottles to the front doors of local Modesto residents. Over the years, the couple's business experienced phenomenal growth, with production and distribution increasing tenfold. In 1954, the Fosters added a modern creamery to their operation and in the 1960s, they opened a cultured products plant in an effort to produce a more diverse product line including cottage cheese, sour cream, yogurt, ice cream and butter. Max continued to concentrate on the Foster Farms Dairy operation while Paul, one of his sons, focused on the poultry business.
