The circle of life
This is my reflection on the life and death of our two beautiful steers, Otis and Rupert.
Grass converters
Nutritious milk comes from healthy cows, who have a healthy gut function, who eat nutrient dense feed which comes from a well balanced soil.
Losing Stella
It’s been a while since I’ve done any farm updates and to be honest it’s been a pretty rough winter.
Calf at foot
Here at Sellar Farmhouse Creamery we run a calf-at-foot practice where calves spend their first three months nursing from their dam.
Life and Death
Waiting, waiting, waiting. I feel like there’s been a lot of waiting for the past 6 weeks.
Flow rate
There’s a lot to consider when planning to have a steady milk flow all year round. Particularly when you are working with such a small herd, one cow can completely throw out your predictions.
