The Mount Milk, Pembrokeshire Milk in Glass Bottles
Get your local milk in glass bottles from a family-run farm in Solva
Speak to anyone over forty and they’re likely to tell you that milk isn’t the same as it used to be; the way it was when the local milkman delivered glass pint bottles to your front door daily. Well, that’s not the case with The Mount Milk.
The third generation Richards family run their dairy farm in Solva and their new milk initiative has taken the whole community by storm. Passionate about sustainability, the Richards have brought back the time-tested old-fashioned milk practice of providing milk in glass bottles, but this time they’re litres rather than pints.
Ingeniously they’ve managed to bring glass-bottled milk into the modern age with a clever vending machine at Bay View Stores in Solva (just one food mile from farm to store!) allowing you to collect your own pasteurised milk at your convenience. Simply purchase your glass Mount Milk bottle, pop it in the machine along with your £1 and watch as the spout pours in your fresh milk - always fresh daily!
Shop local by buying The Mount Milk and you’re not only helping to cut down the need for single-use plastics, but you’re helping to lower the world’s carbon footprints too.
