Kaitake Fresh Creamery
Our boutique 70 cow herd graze on the fresh pastures at the base of the Kaitake ranges. Our cows are milked daily so we can deliver you fresh, chilled and bottled milk straight from the farm. Nothing added, nothing removed. Just fresh whole milk as nature intended.
Reusable
Milk Bottle
In order to do our part in saving the environment, we use glass reusable milk bottles in our bottling system instead of plastic.
We also use handmade wooden crates from renewable forests for transporting and storing the bottles
Planting
Annually we do riparian planting to keep the waterways clear and to help avoid the leaching of nutrients into our waterways and ecosystem.
We also plant trees over the farm to provide the cows with shelter in the summer months.
Protect
Our Animals
Our main priority is to keep the animals safe and well. When needed, we vaccinate the cows against illnesses they are susceptible to and use various minerals and vitamins throughout the season to keep our girls fit and healthy so as to supply you with the very best fresh milk.
By having a small 70 cow herd we know each and every animal and their quirks.
From number 38 who refuses to come in to be milked without a scratch and cuddle to 139 who insists on being first milked each and every day.
Our girls get to dine on fresh lush green pasture each day. As well as silage, hay and other summer crops which are all grown and made on farm to ensure there nutrient requirements are met. They’re treated to apple cider vinegar and minerals daily as well to keep them fit and healthy.
Healthy, well maintained, well fed cows make scrummy wholesome milk. We ensure all of our dairy products are made to the highest quality for everyone to enjoy. Our cows are milked daily so we can deliver you fresh, chilled and bottled milk straight from the farm.
