Meet The Ladies
We wouldn’t be able to do what we do without a dedicated team. Here are just some of our stars who work so hard to produce the milk we carefully get to you.
Denim
Denim is one of our top performing cows and plays a vital role in our heifer breeding program.
She’s one of the hardest working cows in the herd.
She produces copious amounts of beautiful, rich, creamy milk.
She wins hearts with her lovely quiet nature and her golden good looks.
Breed: Jersey
Daughters: Daisy, Dorothy and Delilah
Likes: Hanging out with Sunny and Sonia
Dislikes: Being bossed around by Ferrari
Favourite thing: Chewing her cud in the sunshine
Gally
Gally is charismatic, confident in her own skin.
If she wants to get through a squeeze gate in the dairy, you won’t be able to stop her.
Gally is a firm favourite with the staff.
She has two speeds in the dairy - slow and barely moving.
After being milked she needs a few extra minutes to lick out her (completely empty) food bin before she’ll even consider leaving. We’ve stopped arguing with her about it.
Breed: Jersey plus something mysterious (and stubborn)
Daughters: Galadriel and Gazelle
Likes: Hanging out with Paige and Hazel
Dislikes: Being hurried along
Favourite thing: A well-timed headbutt to ensure she’s first through the gate.
Vicky
Vicky is our poster girl.
She’s the cow on our logo, hand drawn by the talented Lilly Braund, one of our core workers.
Vicky is currently on maternity leave, awaiting the birth of her second calf.
All our cows get a 2 month holiday before calving.
When she does get to the dairy, Vicky likes to hang out the back with the cool kids and come in last.
Always a rebel, she arrives when SHE is ready (and not a minute before).
Breed: Jersey
Daughters: None yet, she sadly lost her first calf at birth
Likes: Hanging out with Gertrude, Browny and Geraldine
Dislikes: Being a front runner
Favourite thing: Playing with Woody, the Jack Russell
Goldy
Goldy doesn’t look like the other cows because… to put it delicately… she’s a bigggg girl.
Unlike the other cows who put any spare energy into their milk, Goldy likes to reserve this fuel for herself. And only three of her four teats actually produce any milk.
So not the herd’s highest producer but luckily the accountant doesn’t get to decide who stays and who goes.
What she lacks in performance she makes up in her winning personality, so we’ve decided Goldy can stay!
Breed: Jersey and something else, probably a Red breed like Aussie Red or Ayrshire
Daughters: Gladys and Gwen
Likes: Hanging out with Honey, Fortuna and Ford
Dislikes: Waiting her turn
Favourite thing: Eating grain
Marigold
Marigold is easily distinguished by her set of giant horns.
She’s a quirky character who just loves having her photo taken. If there’s a camera around, she gets her nose into it.
Marigold is all bluff and bluster - she never really uses her horns as a weapon, more as an accessory to enhance her pose.
Breed: Jersey
Daughters: Marietta
Likes: Hanging out with Ella and Iris
Dislikes: Being ignored
Favourite thing: Photo bombing
