History

Established in 1919.

Foothill Road was the original spot of the Meadowlark Dairy, built in 1919, it was the first certified dairy in the state of California. Meadowlark Dairy on Foothill Road was built on the original spot of the Ohlone Indians and home of the first Adobe building in the tri-valley built in 1846. Francisco Solano Alviso Adobe now a park that is a representation from the Indian era to the Spanish Period to the Dairy period of California. In 1968 moved the processing plant to 57 West Neal Street where it still stands today. Two decades ago drive-through dairies flourished in the Bay Area. Today there are just a few left in all of California and one is right here in downtown Pleasanton. Meadowlark Dairy is Pleasanton's link with yesteryear, a throwback to a kinder, gentler era when personal service was paramount.
