Known for serving fresh milk in iconic glass bottles since the 1920s, the beloved L.A. dairy may be finally closing.

Members of the dairy’s loyal customer base have long stopped by the milk stand decorated with cow-like black-and-white splotches for its creamy white milk, rich chocolate milk and holiday eggnog. The dairy stand, which has a small selection of groceries and dry goods, traces back to 1920 when Ernest Broguiere, a French immigrant from the Alps, purchased a lemon grove on Maple Avenue.

When his lemon business failed, he bought a Holstein cow and some glass bottles and started selling milk door to door using a horse-drawn wagon.Ernest’s son, Ray Broguiere Sr., took over the business in 1965, and Ray Broguiere Jr., the dairy’s most recent owner, took over for his father in 1975. Broguiere Jr.Over the years, Broguiere’s milk has been sold at specialty grocery stores, such as Gelson’s, Pavilions and Mayfair, and at supermarkets such as Ralphs, Vons and Albertsons.
