Our Story

Two Generations.
One Family Farm.

The farming journey began in 1990 when the family purchased the farm. In 1997, milking began with just 30 cows.

Through years of hard work and dedication, the farm has grown into a thriving dairy enterprise milking over 400 cows today.

In September 2021, after returning home from university, The Milk Bar was founded with a vision of connecting people directly with the source of their food by producing, pasteurising and bottling milk on the farm.

"What a great place. Ran in to the lady that ran the place and awesome person. The milk shakes are like flavored milk and the whole DIY side of it was a great experience. Also grabbed some fudge that was so good. I will swing past here again."
