Welcoming Millbrook Dairy as they raise money for Children in Need

Next Friday we are really looking forward to welcoming Millbrook Dairy on site as part of their journey from Bideford to the Orkney Islands in their cheese wedge crowned Tuk-Tuk! The purpose of this 1600-mile trip is to raise money for BBC Children in Need, a superb cause, whilst stopping 29 times along the way. We are fortunate enough to be one of those stops and cannot wait to greet David, Kevin and all of the other members of the team involved, where they will be tasting some of our Lye Cross Farm Cheddar Cheese. If anyone would like to donate to this amazing cause, their JustGiving page is https://lnkd.in/gpvZXBqB

If you are in the local area next Friday around 2-3pm, look out for the Millbrook Tuk-Tuk!

Thank you!

‘HIGHLY COMMENDED’ FOR THE CALF REARER OF THE YEAR AWARD!

Last Thursday, Katy and the team from Regilbury Farm were invited to the National Youngstock Conference in Exeter. The conference aims to promote best practice and facilitate the exchange of ideas relevant to all stages of youngstock rearing.

The invitation came as a result of Katy and the team being one of three finalists out of 70 applicants for the Calf Rearer of the Year Award, ending up with ‘Highly Commended’.

This award not only demonstrates the hard work from the group, but also the dedication they show every day to look after all of their Cows and Calves to the highest standards possible!

Well done to everybody at Regilbury Farm for this amazing achievement, we love you almost as much as your happy Cows and Calves do!
