A Day In The Life Of A Dairy Cow

From Friesian to farmer, there is a lot that is forgotten when it comes to the process of fi eld to fridge, so we asked those working tirelessly to put a pint on our table to give us a little insight to this valuable industry...

Clover the Friesian lives and works on Puxton Court Farm producing top-quality milk all year round. We asked her a little bit more about the ‘9–5’...

Tell us a little bit about your home and office...

“Here at Puxton our herds people look after my friends and I all 365 days a year to make sure we are kept in tip-top condition to produce 100% organic milk. This means that when the grass is sweet and tasty, and the sun is shining, we love nothing more than being outside grazing. When we have come towards the end of our milking year we also graze at night and sleep under the stars. Though when weather is wet and cold we like to be in our purpose-built dairy shed with individual cubicle spaces with mattresses and fresh bedding.”
