Farmer Ted’s Dairy
I was scrolling through my Instagram account this week and saw someone post that they had been to Farmer Ted’s Dairy with their son and got some fresh milk. With my two girls having such a love of milk, the idea of them being able to pour their own fresh non-homogenised and gently pasteurised milk…
Sutton Park
