LAST DAY FOR ONLINE ORDERS

Place your online orders by midnight on Friday 16th December for delivery before Christmas. All orders placed will be sent out via Fedex on a next day working service.

Unfortunately, due to high surcharges, any orders that are not classed as mainland UK addresses will be cancelled.

Normally any small parcels under 2kg in weight can be sent out to Northern Ireland and Scottish Highland addresses with Royal Mail, but due to recent strike action, parcels sent this way will not reach our customers in time for Christmas.

FARM FRESH MILK NOW AVAILABLE AT OUR WELLS STORE

Moo Valley Milk has now arrived at our Wells store. We now have two vending machines in store, one that dispenses fantastic reusable milk bottles which then can be filled with delicious Farm Fresh Milk direct from our other vending machine. We also have a milk shake station, where you can flavour your milk with various syrups for a really tasty treat for you or the kids.

You don't even need to buy one of Moo Valley's reusable bottles, you can also bring your own, glass or plastic. All you need to make sure of is that your container will hold a 1 Litre.

Moo Valleys milk is produced by Farmhouse Dairy in Clutton, Somerset.

They have been farming in Somerset for 5 generations. Their farming methods have not changed much over the years as they like to farm traditionally – how farms used to be.

They thoroughly believe free range milk in Somerset is of the highest quality.
Some farmers are unable to farm in the traditional way. This is often as a result of price pressures.

Up to 20 percent of dairy cows in the UK are confined indoors all year round. Due to disappointing milk prices many farmers see no alternative but to milk large volumes of cows therefore pushing for higher milk yields as a way to stay in business.

By supporting Moo Valley Milk and Farmhouse Dairy in Somerset and their cows, they are able to farm a smaller herd and care for them in a traditional way, this is why your custom is valued so much.

Farmhouse Dairy are very proud of their special Jersey herd and of the product they produce, thank you for supporting the girls and their traditional family farm.


Traditional Milk how it used to be:

Farmhouse Dairy’s free-range milk comes straight from the grass to you. With their processing unit on the farm it is pasteurised and bottled.

Their milk is non-homogenised which means the milk is left more natural.

All Farmhouse Dairy's milk is non homogenised and just pasteurised. This means that the milk has a creamy taste in comparison to normal supermarket milk! If you leave their milk in the fridge for a few hours, the cream will slowly rise to the top where you can take it off as a special treat or simply shake the bottle to mix it back in.

What is homogenised milk?

Homogenisation is carried out by squirting milk at very high pressure through a special machine; this breaks up the fat particles and makes them very small so they disperse evenly throughout the milk. It isn’t needed at all to make a food healthier but is simply carried out to make milk look more appealing to consumers.

Christmas is now fast approaching and time is running out to order those much wanted gifts for delivery before the big day.

Our last day for orders to be delivered before Christmas will be midday on Friday the 18th December.

Any orders placed after 12pm on Friday the 18th December cannot be guaranteed for delivery before Christmas.

Please note, we only deliver to mainland UK addresses. Some smaller items can also be sent to Northern Ireland and Scottish Highlands, but due to weight and size restrictions with Royal Mail, anything over the weight of 2kg cannot be sent.
