FRESH LOCAL
WHOLE MILK.
Delivered straight from our cows
to your home in reusable glass bottles.
The taste of our fresh whole milk speaks for itself.
We are committed to operating in a natural and sustainable manner, following organic farming practices and philosophies - no chemical fertilisers and spray free pastures. We leave our cows with their calves, and we spread the cow's calving dates throughout the year so we have consistent production and quality throughout the year.
Delivered straight from our cows to your home
We do all our milking and bottling on-site, so you know your milk is delivered straight from the cow to you. We deliver Oamaru wide straight to your home, and we have wonderful local Waitaki stockists where you can purchase.
Our Story
A local lad from Maheno, when Glen decided to followed his dream to return to the land and tend animals, he combined his passion with that of his wife Bronwyn who had a strong sense of community and passion for the environment.
Together they purchased land on the outskirts of Oamaru, and separately, purchased the existing business of The Natural Dairy, with a passionate commitment to doing it the right way.
Why Our Milk
Our passion is providing the local community with whole, fresh milk, direct from the cow to the consumer. We believe in a sustainable model, with calves left on cows, reusable glass bottles and any unsold milk is given back to our calves.
Whilst we are not a certified organic farm, we are committed to operating in a natural and sustainable manner and we do follow organic farming practices and philosophies, we don't use chemical fertilisers and our pastures are spray free.
