From Farm to Fridge
Yester Farm Dairies is run by husband and wife team Simon and Jackie McCreery, operating alongside the family farm at Yester Mains in East Lothian, Scotland. Once milking is finished on the farm the milk can be piped straight from the milking parlour to the modern pasteurisation plant and cheese room on-site where we produce an artisan range of soft cheeses, cottage cheese, yogurts, creme fraiche, soured cream and fiore di latte mozzarella.
The freshness of our milk makes really superior products. We hand-make everything on the family farm ensuring the freshest possible product for our customers, keeping food miles low and offering full traceability.
Our cows are very important to us so we look after them well. All our cows enjoy time out on the lush Scottish pastures but they are also fed a nutritionally balanced diet which includes grass or silage, wheat and barley all harvested from our farm. The attention to our cows’ nutrition together with the natural pasteurisation process leads to top quality, fresh and tasty products. “From farm to fridge” is not just a strapline for us, it is an important part of our ethos and identity.
