Our products

Probiotic Sheep Milk Yoghurt

A nutrient rich probiotic yoghurt with a smooth silky texture and a subtle tang. With only two ingredients; probiotic cultures and our milk, you’ll love this traditionally made yoghurt.

Whole Sheep Milk

Nothing Added, nothing taken away. Enjoy our full cream SPCA certified sheep’s milk which is a gentle option for those who can’t tolerate cow’s milk and is packed full of nutrition!

Labneh & Farmhouse cheese

We have delved into the world of cheese and currently offer a delicious Labneh which is a great replacement for cream cheese, and we are doing a semi-hard Farmhouse aged cheese which is a blend between the Manchego and Cheddar styles.

"The unique composition of the milk has helped me protect my stomach and keep foods down, the easy to digest and high protein content has enabled me to walk further than before. Being so high in so many vitamins and essential nutrients it has helped me meet my daily intake without struggling to eat normal food and just how smooth and easy the sheep’s milk has been to drink is amazing.”

NEW PRODUCT: Labneh is here!!

We are extremely excited to say that our Probiotic Sheep Milk Yoghurt has won a gold medal at the 2023 Outstanding Food Producer Awards

With over 290 locally produced products entered into the awards this year, we are stoked to have our unique yoghurt product selected among the few to receive a gold, alongside some other amazing kiwi food producers 😊

“A lovely glossy texture and just tangy enough giving it a great flavour” – the judges commented 😋

From all of our product development we did back in 2022 to all of the yoghurt we now send out week after week, we have given it our all and we’re super proud of what we have achieved! We’re also incredibly appreciative of all of the support we’ve had from all of you along the way! So a massive THANK YOU from our Fernglen Farm Fam 💙

Sheep Milk

Tummy Friendly

Easier to digest due to a different protein structure, smaller fat globules and around half the ratio of lactose content, making it a great option for those struggling with other milk types.

Nutritious

Packed with essential nutrients, sheep milk contains higher levels of protein, vitamins, and minerals compared to cow and goat milk.

Sustainable

Our sheep are pasture-raised, promoting biodiversity and soil health while reducing our environmental footprint.
