Fair Cape Dairies is undoubtedly one of the most ethical dairy farms in our country.

We’ve all heard the horror stories about cows injected with Bovine Growth Hormones, antibiotics and fed a diet of GM food. What happens to the dairy products that come from farms that use these immoral methods of production? Well, the bottom line is that all of that stuff gets ingested by YOU when you down a glass of milk. Not nice.

Fair Cape on the other hand has some very strict policies as to how to care for their cows. In fact, their cows even undergo a test known as the ‘happy-cow’ index which tells their in-house vet exactly HOW content their cows are. More importantly, Fair Cape doesn’t  use antibiotics, GM feed or hormones on their cows. Every cow is raised  and cared for the natural way, the way it should be.

Their Animal Welfare pillars focus on the wellbeing of their cows and take into account the following actions:

• Their cows are housed in spacious and comfortable housing with access to both under-roof and outdoor sections.
• Their cows are each individually monitored three times daily for any illness or discomfort.
• A vet is in daily attendance to attend to any sick cows.
• No shouting, clapping, hitting or any other actions which may scare the cows are permitted on this farm.
• Cows are fed an individualized diet created specifically for each cow.
• Machines are checked daily to ensure that they work well for the comfort of the cows.
• Our cows are scored monthly according to a cow comfort index with nine different metrics.

What you get? The most superb and high-quality dairy products that have a 100% retention of all the nutrients we need to take in daily via this important food group.
