About First Milk
First Milk is a dairy farmer-owned co-operative owned by British family farms, working together to produce the highest quality dairy products, with a vision to enrich life every day to secure the future. Through strong, collaborative relationships between farmers, colleagues and partners, we work to be regenerative, future-proofing soil, farms, creameries and communities whilst making first-rate dairy products. Our approach is centred around regenerative thinking - about having a positive impact on the world whilst producing nutritious, tasty dairy products to feed a growing population. This starts with regenerative farming but extends throughout the business, resulting in a shared commitment to nourish the earth and future generations. With around 700 farmer members and around 220 colleagues, First Milk produces award-winning cheddar, regional cheese, whey products and dairy ingredients which we sell into the B2B market, as well as having a branded on-farm vending and cheese business, Golden Hooves.
