About us

Our Story

Weโ€™re a family-run dairy farm based in Over Hulton, Bolton, where weโ€™ve been caring for our land and livestock for over 70 years! Our herd of mostly Ayrshire cows are at the heart of everything we do - producing the rich, creamy milk thatโ€™s become the foundation of Milk Maids.

HOW MILK MAIDS BEGAN

When the price of milk hit an all-time low nearly a decade ago, we decided to take a leap โ€” and started making our own ice cream right here on the farm. What began as a small idea soon became something we loved, and we havenโ€™t looked back since!

Farm Fresh & Local

In 2018, we were proud to receive our raw milk license, allowing us to share our milk exactly as nature intended. Since then, itโ€™s grown in popularity tenfold, with customers coming from near and far to taste the difference.
