About Chew Valley Dairy
Organically farming for over 30 years
Our family has been milking cows in the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, for almost 500 years. Our long experience means we recognise the importance of ethical and sustainable farming. The Chew Valley Dairy has full organic certification: it means our organic milk has higher levels of animal welfare, lower levels of pesticides, no manufactured herbicides or artificial fertilisers, and more environmentally sustainable management of farmland and the natural environment – which means more wildlife!
Actively working to tackle climate change
We are one of many British Farmers committed to tackling climate change and support the NFU’s aspiration for agriculture to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 0% by 2040. We are one of only a handful of UK farms to have an anaerobic digester, which converts farm by-products (including manure) into clean, low carbon energy that powers our farm and homes in a neighbouring village.
