Our Secret?
Happy Cows.

How Now Milk is about being able to enjoy drinking milk, without the guilt...

HOW NOW Dairy is what happens when a music industry exec meets a third generation dairy farmer, and together they decide to challenge the globally accepted inhumane dairy industry practices and create an ethical dairy farm based on the simple premise of kindness.

And we dream of many more farms just like ours joining the HOW NOW family.

Cathy Palmer, a passionate animal right activist who had built a career in the music industry, decided to stop complaining about the problem – and become part of the solution.

The result is HOW NOW Dairy, a micro dairy farm located in  Katamatite Victoria. 

Five years on and Cathy Palmer continues the business on her own going from strength to strength and introducing cheese into the product list. “I can’t imagine
farming any other way, the calm personalities of the cows, the happy playful
calves, the beautiful shaded farm I’ve landed up on, all points toward a better
direction for dairying – for all involved.”

The dairy is small, family owned, and fiercely independent. We’re proud of our commitment to a more ethical approach to dairy production.

If you too want to be part of the solution, why not join us?

H – Humane

All our calves remain on our farm. They stay with their mothers, often coming into the dairy with Mum for a look around while she is milked. Our attitude is, we are sharing the milk. There’s plenty to go round.

A – Artisanal

Additive free production and processing with none of the hormones and other additives commonly used.

 

P – Provenance of products with a closed loop process.

Our process is simple: paddock-product-plate.

P – Production of milk

There are no efficiency interventions common to modern dairy farming – we keep all the yummy goodness in!

Y – Yummy

The result is a pure, naturally delicious milk and cream.

 

Our cows are located on an amazing farm of 240 acre that has been organically farmed for the past 50 years.

We are small, family owned and fiercely independent. But our dreams are big (massive in fact) and with enough people coming on the journey with us and demanding Kind Milk we think we’re onto something that’s going to change dairying around the world.
