James and Kate Clairmont, with their two school-aged kids, Theo and Lily, follow pasture-fed, ethical farming practices in order to bring you fresh, healthy sheep milk products.
Currently they are milking 200 dairy-breed ewes daily, they allow the lambs to stay with their mum until they’re about six weeks old and ready to be weaned as this is much kinder and healthier for both ewe and lamb. The ewes then graze all day on the green pastures or snooze under a shady tree before meandering down to the milking shed.
Sheep milk is naturally homogenised, therefore it is lovely and creamy with a velvet-like texture. Sheep milk is an A2 milk and generally suitable for people who have lactose sensitivity.
