Is raw milk environmentally friendly?

There is a lot of bad press regarding livestock farming and its environmental impact in the news at the moment. You can be assured that the purchasing of local, sustainable and grass fed milk is one of the best things you can do for the environment. Our milk has below zero food miles. Our cows are fed grass, while providing us with natural fertiliser in the form of their manure. Compare our below zero food mile natural milk, with plant based alternatives such as almond "milk" that has been flown or shipped to the UK from South America, holding massive food mileage and a large impact on the local populace and wildlife of South America, you can assured that we are very proud of our environmentally friendly farm operation.
