Milkwood Dairy

We’re looking forward to a new birth at Milkwood Farm.
🥳🎉🙌🏽
Lamp is one of our hard working cows.
🐄
She was examined by the well respected cattle vet Dr Riaan Putter on Friday morning and he confirmed that she is pregnant and in good health.

We have a monthly herd visit by our veterinarian who helps us to look after our herd.

Lamp is due to have her calf in June….

❓Can we please have suggestions for names beginning with the letter “L”?

⭐️EMERY is a STAR MILKER⭐️

🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

The “E” family of cows at Milkwood Farm is noted for good milk production and five star fertility.

7 year old Emery has already had 5 calves and we are seeking some more girls’ names starting with the letter “E”.
Any suggestions?

Our 𝗗𝗼𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗬𝗼𝗴𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘁 comes in 500g and 1kg pot sizes.

🥛🥛We use 2 litres of our farm fresh milk to produce every single litre of yogurt.

⏰The cultured yoghurt is strained in the traditional Greek method for between 8 – 10 hours to remove the whey.

👏🏽This results in a thick, creamy yoghurt FREE FROM any additives, thickeners, stabilisers or emulsifiers.

⭐️ Our Double Cream Strained Yoghurt contains 7,26g of protein per 100g

Struggling to find ways to sneak kefir into your diet….

🌀 Shake it up, “Bond style”, with some vanilla, ice and coffee for an immune boosting Kefir Cocktail.

It’s only 4 more sleeps till Friday 🤣

Let’s hear it for the gingers!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
A small proportion of our pure bread Friesland herd have ‘red and white’ rather than ‘black and white’ markings.

This beautiful cow is called Dane, she carries a relatively rare recessive genetic trait that gives her coat this reddish hue and helps her to stand out in the Milkwood herd.

Dane even has the personality to match her redhead status!
