Weekly Specials are emailed out on a Friday or over the weekend for the 'upcoming' week.  That means the 'special' only runs from Monday - Friday following the specials email notice.  The special no longer applies after 1 week unless the special is announced/continued over.  All specials are on our website.

Yes please! Our Wellington Region/Wairarapa/Palmerston North/Kapiti Coast/Foxton/Foxton Beach/Levin & Palmerston North delivery teams are often working in the dark.

We will credit your account with us once we receive the bottle return and then charge your credit card for the delivery. If you keep a bottle, you will not be credited that deposit amount.

Grant and Charlotte haven't tested their cows individually but approximately 80% of their herd has the A2 protein. This is something that we may look into in the future but at the moment we can't sell the milk as A2.
The herd is a cross bred herd with the cows being roughly 3/4 Fresian and 1/4 Jersey. We have found that this mix of cross breeding provides a smooth silky milk without having an excessive amount cream.

If you can please clean your bottles in soapy warm water after rinsing them first in cold water.  Please do not put the bottles in the dishwasher - this process will remove our branding on the bottles.  We are currently not taking back the lids - please remove them before returning your bottles.  (We currently do not have a suitable sterilising system for the lids).  We are unable to collect and credit glass bottles that are dirty.  Thank you for your cooperation.

You can either have a one off order or you can create a recurring order. If you create a recurring order if you can please use the Vacation setting on your account if you would like to skip a delivery if your away. It's very simple to pop in the dates you are away and it skips until your return.

You can easily put a recurring order on hold by using the 'Vacation' section on your account. You can select the days you are away and your orders will restart on your return.

The pork is from Canterbury and although isn't local the quality and consistency is exceptional. 
It is no coincidence that the pork is of such great quality and the pigs are free farmed and kept under strict regulations set out by the SPCA and have received the Blue Tick for animal welfare.
