More than 6 loads of raw milk leaves this beautiful part of Dorset every day of the year. The milk is flash cooled to 3 degrees on farm, then loaded onto 28 Ton Lorries and hauled to a factory for pasteurization. It will be with retailer's such as M&S, Lidl’s, Muller and Milk & More the following morning. Thanks to everyone in this amazing supply chain! #Keepstrongdrinkmilk

Stop for a moment to reflect! This wonderful snap in weather you can see the grass actually growing.... Hopefully a nice early cut of silage to feed the cows this autumn so milk keeps flowing until Christmas and beyond.
