Hollis Mead represents "wholesome, old school, natural dairy" from their wild, organic farm in west Dorset. Their ethos is simple: they feed their cows purely on grass and wild flowers that grow in their fields, and they only milk them once a day. This means they produce less milk per cow than the average industrial dairy farm, but the positive impact on their cows' health is immeasurable – and you can taste the difference in their delicious milk, butter, cream and yoghurt.

Founded by Oliver and Charlie Hemsley, the farm spans over 90 acres and adheres strictly to organic, pasture-fed methods.

Their award-winning kefir is produced in collaboration with Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River Cottage, reflecting their dedication to quality and innovation. The farm's sustainable practices are designed to improve soil health and promote wildlife, demonstrating that environmentally friendly farming can be both profitable and beneficial to nature.
