Nancy's has been recommended but not found here. TJ also has plain kefir.

I love Nancy’s yogurt. I live about an hour away from their home base in Springfield OR, so feel that it is “local”. But I can’t say that I like their cottage cheese. I want to; it ticks all the boxes - local, organic, live cultures - except for one: I don’t like the taste, or maybe it’s the texture, or maybe both. It has been quite awhile since last I tried. I can’t recommend it, but as we all experience such things differently it might be worth your while to check it out if you can find it. The yogurt however is great. I get the whole milk, organic version. The Greek version is pricier than I wish, so I just drain the regular through cheesecloth if I feel I need it thicker.
