WELCOME TO MOO-TOPIA

Every day at Ashgrove starts in the same way: caring for the cows that supply our on-farm factory with fresh, premium milk.

Milking happens at dawn, and the cows know the routine. They make their way to the milking sheds, some still grazing, and eagerly await their milking time.

Our cows are handled gently from birth, raised in a low-stress and sensitive manner. Combined with a natural lifestyle of roaming freely on open pastures, it’s no surprise that their milk is of exceptional quality.

The herds on our family farms are a special mix of Brown Swiss, Jersey, and Holstein-Friesian breeds. Brown Swiss and Jersey cows are chosen for their creamy, high-butterfat milk, while Holstein-Friesians are valued for their robustness and strong production capacity.

Our farms pride themselves on ethical practices. They don’t dock tails or practise bobby calving. These cows give birth naturally, and their milking schedule supports both mother and calf.

With a focus on animal welfare and sustainable farming practices, the Ashgrove farming familes always strive to produce the finest milk possible. Committed to the health and happiness of the cows that supply our factory, ensuring the best quality at every step.
