Mmmmmooooore About Peckforton Farm Dairy…
Peckforton Farm Dairy supplies super quality milk to both locals and businesses in Cheshire.
Local people; and tea, coffee shops and restaurants have already given the milk a huge ‘thumbs up’ buying milk on a regular basis. Milk is supplied both from the farm gate via a fridge on the side of the farmhouse, or by delivery by refrigerated van. Both raw and pasteurised milks in glass or plastic are available.
Manor Farm, Peckforton, has been a family dairy farm for six generations. Run by Jacqueline and James Capewell along with Jacqueline’s father, Lincoln Dakin, the dairy herd comprises of around 160 Meuse Rhine Issel milking cows who rear their own calves. The cows are famous for their great tasting, high protein milk.
Said Jacqueline: “We operate environmentally friendly and high welfare systems. All cattle are reared on our farm and farmland. Female calves are used for dairy cow replacements and bull calves are reared for beef. We are virtually self-sufficient in what we feed. Our cattle enjoy great Cheshire grassland in spring, summer and autumn, and in winter are fed our home-grown silage.
Added Jacqueline: “We started the direct milk supply business in 2018 following the interest in raw milk for nutrition and health reasons, and the whole operation is growing well. Many people calling in like to see our cows out grazing on the fields near the farm.”
The fridge is housed on the side of the farm house; we take orders via email and put them in the fridge for collection the next morning. The milk is £1.40 a litre collected from the fridge. Regular deliveries of pasteurised milk are made to tea and coffee shops, and restaurants by van. The milk is particularly well suited for making coffee, ideal for barista purposes.
