Armed with nothing more than a few 19th century dairy journals, a small mixer and a passion for simple and natural foods, Andrew and Elizabeth McBath, set out to create a traditional, slow-cultured butter with deep taste and a connection to grass-fed dairies and processors. With plenty of encouragement from friends and family, Drew and Elizabeth began selling tiny runs of Banner Butter at a farmers’ markets, local butchers, and small bakeries. Over the past several years, Banner Butter has expanded across the country, yet the company maintains it’s small-batch, traditional approach to butter-making. Since inception, Banner Butter has offered one of the only slow-cultured, batch-churned butters in North America. We go big, but only in taste. Everything else is small, simple, and slow.“
