Why Sutton Fresh

Naturally local, wonderfully fresh

  • Cow to cup in under 25 metres

    Our cows are milked by robot less than 25 metres from where you're served. Milk simply doesn't come fresher.

  • Born here, milked here

    Every cow milked on this farm was born on this farm, so there's next to nothing in the way of food miles.

  • Gently pasteurised, only 4% fat

    Simple, pure and fresh. Nothing added, nothing taken away.

  • Glass bottles, less waste

    Buy a glass bottle once and refill it as many times as you like, or grab a recyclable paper cup at the vendors.

  • Naturally good for you

    Milk is rich in protein to support muscles, calcium for bones, and vitamin B12, which helps reduce tiredness and supports a normal immune system.

  • Affordable, every day

    Proper fresh milk at a fair price, to enjoy as part of a healthy, balanced diet and lifestyle.

Our Story

Milking cows at Bent Farm since 1921

Our family has been milking cows here for over 100 years, ever since Great Great Great Grandpa Sutton started the herd. Today we milk 100 pedigree Holstein Friesians through our milking robot, just a few steps from where you’re served.
