The poetry of milk has gone a little awry. Our land no longer flows with it. Mrs Thatcher took away the bottles of milk brought in after the Second World War to ensure that all British schoolchildren had calcium and vitamins in their diet. Then, in the following decade, the ill-informed fat police put about […]

We think it’s really important to teach and show children how Nemi milk is produced, and we love the idea of letting them meet the cows & calves. So we jumped at the chance to take two of our gorgeous little calves to St Maria Goretti Primary School in Preston. The children were so well […]

A while back we heard that some lovely chickens were going to be gotten rid of because they’d stopped laying eggs and had begun to molt so all their feathers were falling out (don’t worry this is normal & the feathers grow back!)

The presenters were talking about all things dairy and whether claims alternatives like almond & soya milk are better for you than traditional cows milk… of course, we know Nemi is best! If you missed it […]

The awful weather this morning reminded us of the flooding we experienced on 6th December last year. Jack, who studies at Myerscough College and works weekends for us, was up at the farm first on the 6th. He rang us from downstairs to say come quickly there’s water everywhere! Our first concern was the calves and the […]
