This Round's Corrections (2026-07-28, evening)
This revision addressed two client-caught errors in the prior draft:
- Wrong founding date (1985 → 1900) — Corrected throughout. Verified 0 remaining instances.
- Missing product lines — Prior draft wrote only 4 Milk & Dairy items and skipped Juice & Drinks entirely. This revision adds full copy for all 19 previously-missing SKUs, repositioning Homepage/Our Story/Wholesale/Media Kit to reflect a full dairy operation (not ice-cream-only story).
All facts were pulled directly from toftdairy.com (2026-07-28) before any copy was written. Reference: /tmp/toft_VERIFIED_FACTS.md
