This product is made in New Zealand.
Milk is only sourced from cows in New Zealand.
The cows roam freely outside on the paddocks through the year.
They graze on fresh pasture. To ensure that their nutritional needs are met, the cows are provided with supplementary feed during winter and poor weather conditions.
Dairy farming practices in New Zealand varies depending on region and season, as climate factors influences grass nutrition and growth.
To ensure efficient use of farmland and continuous supply of pasture, fields are rotated regularly with cow herds being allocated to a specific paddock during each rotation.
In New Zealand, over the entire dairy season there is on average approximately 1 hectare of farmland for every 2-3 cows. With farm rotation, at any given time the cow-to-field density will vary depending on local farming practices, seasonality, weather conditions and cow's natural inclination to form groups as a herd animal.
Milking season in New Zealand begins in August and runs through to the end of May. Cows are typically milked twice per day from September to January, and once per day for the remainder of the season.
There are selected farms where winter milk is collected.
