Farmer Teds Shed

Morning All,
Just to give you a quick update here on the farm- There’s a chilly wind in the air this morning. The ladies are all having their brekkie after mornings milking and they are all very calm, peaceful and happy as they tuck into their grass silage.
I hope you are all staying healthy, well and safe?
... We have had a lot of new customers over the past few weeks- which has been fantastic and thank you for your support during these tough times 🙏 We hope to still see you after everything settles down and life goes back to normal.
Have a lovely Sunday xxxx

Morning All,
IMPORTANT INFORMATION regarding our Prime Ministers announcement last night regarding Covid 19 and limiting the spread of the virus. 🐄 The shed will remain open for Milk and Eggs and we will do our upmost to keep the shed freshly stocked, until we have any differing information. By doing this we will help take a little pressure off the shops and allow you to buy your milk and eggs in a less confined space and maintain social distancing. 🐄 We ask that you continue... to observe the rules in place, please stay in your vehicle or maintain 2 metres apart if someone else is using the shed we cannot stress enough how important this is. Once you’ve finished in the shed, please take your purchases straight home. 🐄 We are observing and being vigilant about strict hygiene measures for ourselves and in the shed; sanitising contact points in the shed regularly.
We ask that you help us comply with these new rules in place until further notice- it will help keep us safe, you- our wonderful customers safe and the wider community. It allows us to remain open to provide some essential foods for our local community.
Stay safe and healthy, lots of love..
Ed, Em and the team 🐄💙🥛

Happy Mother’s Day! 🌼🌸 We hope you have a wonderful day in what are quite testing and strange times for us all... unprecedented.
We are working hard to keep the shed fully stocked and the milk flowing, demand is very high so please bear with us. Although we will never run out of milk, there are times when we have to take the tank out of the machine to refill with our nutritious, delicious milk 🐄
We now have plenty of eggs... however, no egg boxes, with a delivery that shoul...d have arrived yesterday...but never made it! Please if you have any empty egg boxes at home, would you be able to leave some in the shed? Thank you so much in advance! 🙏
Once again, thank you for all your support! It means the world to us. Farmers always look after Great Britain by still farming through every crisis... from the wettest autumn/ winter we have ever had on record where we couldn’t harvest half our crop and still haven’t managed to work the land to plant any new crops to now... the Coronavirus where food demand is so very high.... we keep on farming! 🇬🇧
We will help and support you during these times and after too 💚
Ed, Em and the team here at Obelisk Farm

Morning All!
Today is another new day and I just wanted to thank and welcome all our new customers and followers to the shed and to this page ⭐️🐄💛 It has been so lovely to meet some of you when I have been topping up supplies down in the shed!
There is a fresh new batch of our beautiful nutritious whole milk ready and waiting for you in our vending machine this morning and plenty of eggs too and fresh double cream.
... If you have any problems or questions, please do feel very welcome to get in touch.
For those who are thinking of or attempting to self isolate, we can bring milk to your car without any contact with the machines and/or anybody else- we have done this for some customers already. Please get in touch with us prior to arriving. If not, enjoy the fresh air and the lovely views of our calving shed- you might just see a newborn!
See you soon and best wishes,
Ed and Em xxx 🐄❤️🐄

Thank you to The Wife Behind The Farmer. What a brilliant idea... please follow the original thread for comments and locations for fresh produce and stock available 🙂
We are open from 7am-7pm every day for our nutritious Whole Milk, Double Cream, Chicken Eggs, Duck Eggs, Fowlers of Earlswood cheese and Henley Chocolates Bars. Please do let us know if we can do anything to help and we will do what we can in these uncertain times 👍🏼
Health is Wealth!

In these uncertain times, especially with all the worry about the CoronaVirus, I wanted to reassure our lovely customers that as a 5* rated hygiene business by the Food Standards Agency (we have only ever been 5*🌟) Our hygiene measures and protocol are of paramount importance to us when we pasteurise our milk and in the shed itself.
As a small business, Farmer Teds Shed, means that times ahead could be tough. Please keep shopping and supporting your local independents.... 💯
O...ne things for sure... we’re never going to run out of milk here! 😆🐄🐄
