Cools Cow-Calf Micro Dairy
What is a Cow-Calf Dairy?
The Cow-calf dairy system is an innovative, ethical way of producing milk, putting welfare before profit!
The Ethical & Regenerative Approach To Dairy Farming
Milking Our Red Polls
As we all know, our Red Poll Cattle are a dual purpose breed. The most popular use of the Red Polls are suckler cows producing beef. Although they are becoming more popular as a milking cow.
Here at Cools our main aim is to produce scrumptious organic beef, but since starting our share-farming journey, milking the Red Polls has always been on the cards for us.
Our plan is to start slowly, milking a handful of cows to begin with for our own consumption making sure we get things right. We will be milking the handful once a day and they will be keeping their suckling calves until weaning, like they naturally would if they were a part of the suckler herd.
Playing our part in the higher welfare dairy movement.
Our Plans for the Future:
MILK
We plan to produce raw milk, only available direct to consumer.
BUTTER
Making Butter from the Red Poll's naturally creamy milk.
YOGHURT & ICE CREAM
Production of Yoghurt and Ice Cream is something we plan on exploring.
Using this ethical approach to dairying, we will be selling our pure, creamy raw milk - straight from the cows udder to you!
