There is an alternative to industrial-scale milk production. Maple Field Milk is bringing milk production back into the community by developing micro-dairies for grass-fed cows. A herd of just 15-20 cows are grazed on grass all the time. They are milked using a mobile milking parlour which is brought to where the cows are.
The milk is processed on site and then sold in bottles to the local community. This means that everyone knows exactly where their milk comes from and can see the cows down the road that produced it. This brilliant idea has potential to transform the dairy industry by creating a model which can be spread to any field anywhere and provide local milk for local people.
Help us buy a refrigerated van so that we can transport our milk slightly further afield, and to buy more cows so that we can increase our production.
In return we'll give you milk and cheese, and even milking and cheese-making lessons. The result will be healthy cows, healthy milk and a healthy planet. And we promise that you'll have lots of fun with your money! Please help us.
