Jalna Yoghourt, an Australian brand of yogurt, is being promoted as the Pot of Purity in a television, print and outdoor advertising campaign. The Jalna brand began in the 1950s when a Polish farmer bought a property near Eltham, Victoria, and discovered a sign on the gate with the name Jalna. Over the years the family business has developed a reputation for healthy dairy products, strengthened in 1998 with the purchase of the Jalna BioDynamic Organic farm in the Goulburn valley.
