Organic Herd

Day 8: 🎄 Cow-mfort and Joy How Many Cows Could You Fit Round Your Christmas Table? Not many? Good thing they’ve already got one, and it’s outdoors. Our cows don’t jostle for space or squabble over sprouts. They graze in wide open meadows, with a buffet of clover, herbs, and grasses on offer. No elbows. No table manners. Just freedom, fresh air, and full plates. It’s the ultimate all-you-can-eat, all-you-can-roam Christmas picnic. 🎁 It’s not a festive extra. It’s farming by the rulebook. #CowComfort #OrganicCows #AnimalWelfare #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd #MerryMeadowmas

🐄 Day 7: Cows That Graze, Not Just Graze Over Research by Barański et al. (2016) found organic milk contains around 50% more omega-3s and higher antioxidants, thanks to grass-fed, outdoor systems. That’s nutrition with provenance, from farm to table. #PastureRaised #OrganicCows #GrassGrazed #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

🧬 Day 6: Prevention Over Prescription Routine antibiotic use is prohibited under organic standards. Here at Organic Herd, we go one step further and prohibit them altogether. We focus on prevention through herd health, clean housing, and natural care. Healthy cows make honest milk, no shortcuts required. #ResponsibleFarming #OrganicStandards #AnimalHealth #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

🐝 Day 5: Buzzing with Life All we want for Christmas is… bees. Kennedy et al. (2013) found that organic farms support around 75% more wild bees than conventional systems. By banning herbicides and building wild habitats, organic farming gives pollinators room to thrive. #Biodiversity #PollinatorFriendly #OrganicStandards #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

🧀 Day 4: Four ingredients. That’s it. Ingredients you’d actually want on your Christmas list: milk, salt, natural enzymes (rennet) and time. Organic standards prohibit glyphosate, GM feed, and artificial preservatives. Our cheddar is crafted with certified ingredients and traditional methods, for food with integrity built in. #CleanLabel #OrganicCheese #FoodIntegrity #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

🌱 Day 3: Soil Comes First Deck the fields with clover and compost. Organic systems build biodiversity, lock away carbon, and restore long-term fertility. At Organic Herd, every field is treated as a living ecosystem, not a factory floor. #RegenerativeAgriculture #SoilFirst #OrganicStandards #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

🐄 Day 2: Farmer-Owned, Not Shareholder-Grown No corporate Christmas bonuses here. We’re farmer-owned, which means every penny goes straight back to the people who milk the cows, care for the land, and make this cheese what it is. Real ownership. Real reward. That’s what makes this co-op shine brighter than any tinsel. #FarmerOwned #NoMiddlemen #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

🎄 Day 1: Unwrap the Rulebook Did you know, organic farming is the only legally defined food system in the UK? Organic farming isn’t a walk in the park. Or field, for that matter. Getting and retaining Organic Certification demands meticulous attention to detail and a whole lot of effort. It’s also regulated by extremely stringent standards, by both UK and international bodies. Our entire supply chain is independently verified each year. This covers all aspects of food and farming – from animal care, and environmental protection all the way through to quality, and food safety. What does this mean for you? Higher quality, across the board. So as we unwrap the month with us, remember: organic is certified and 100% earned, not gifted. #CertifiedOrganic #FarmerOwned #SustainableFarming #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd

It’s officially cheese board season. 🧀🔥 Cold nights. Warm kitchens. A bit of red wine. Maybe some chutney that’s definitely fancier than you meant to buy. But here’s the real luxury: knowing where your food comes from. Our organic cheese isn’t just delicious, it’s proof of a better system. Cows on pasture. Milk without antibiotics. Farming that nourishes the soil and the people who tend it. So this November, go ahead, load up that board. Because treating yourself shouldn’t come at the planet’s expense. #ProofOverPromise #OrganicCheese #ComfortFoodSeason #HowWeFarmMatters #OrganicHerd
