Partnering with Park Farm: Where Cows, Quality, and Ice Cream Unite

In September 2022, we kicked off an udderly fantastic partnership with Park Farm to source the freshest whole milk for our scrumptious ice cream. Not only did this partnership reduce our carbon hoofprint by keeping things local (less than 10 miles away!), but it also showcased our commitment to quality. Park Farm’s milk brings a whole new level of creaminess to our ice cream, thanks to those extra-lovingly raised cows with their rich, high-fat content milk.

Hold your cone, there’s more! We worked with Park Farm to revolutionize our milk delivery – ciao to single-use plastics!  Before, we were drowning in 70 cardboard boxes and plastic containers every week, but now, our milk arrives in giant 1000-litre reusable pallecon containers – saving the day and about two and a half tons of single-use plastic every year!

Discover more about Park Farm and how you can get their fresh milk delivered to your doorstep here.

Our Too Good To Go Ice Cream Rescue

Join our commitment to combating food waste with the Too Good To Go collection system at our Rutherglen factory. You can purchase out-of-date or surplus stock at a third of the original price. This initiative has so far spared 200+ tubs of ice cream from going to waste and prevented the emission of 800+ kg of CO2e.

We caught up with Ross, the man behind the new dairy at Park Farm 🥛
 
His goal is simple: bottle their own top-quality milk and deliver it straight to families and businesses in East Kilbride and beyond. The milk travels just a few metres from cow to dairy, so customers like us know exactly where it’s coming from, even down to meeting the herd!🐄

Fun fact: It’s the only sea salt in the UK made using just sun and wind. Pretty cool, right? ☀️
