Churchill Creamery Company

Nevada financier George Wingfield became one of the state’s earliest dairy enthusiasts. He went into business with Lahontan Valley ranchers who used the name Churchill Creamery Company. By 1911, the company had two creameries operating. In 1913 Churchill Creamery absorbed the Fallon Creamery Cooperative. Their new creamery was located on North Maine Street, and the building still exists on the west side of the street just north of Kent’s Supply. The creamery was equipped to produce up to 10,000 pounds of butter each day, far more than the local farmers could ever supply.

Lee-Inman Flour Mills - Crescent Flour -- 1882-1908

Frank W. Inman was the proud owner of the flour mill near the South Branch of the Carson River [present day 500 Berney Road. The mill’s roller grinder was powered by a water wheel. His dream was to grind every pound of golden wheat grown in Lahontan Valley into Crescent Flour! In 1909 the business moved into town to be near electricity, a more dependable source of energy.

These “Blue Ribbon” bread wrappers were a trademark for the loaves of bread marketed by M.B. Johnson from 1924 to 1933.         

Johnson first operated his bakery out of a building located across from today’s Custom Office Supply. After the building burned in 1925, he bought another property on Maine Street and built a brick building for his bakery.    

Johnson sold the business in 1933 and it continued to operate until 1957 when small bakeries became impractical due to the competition from large chain stores.
