However, two of the most popular products amongst our customers have to be the Luxury Jersey Butter and the Greek Yoghurt - and we can understand why they LOVE them 😋

☀️ 🧊 COOL BOXES 🧊 ☀️

If there was ever a time to leave a cool box out, then tonight is the night…

Currently reading 31 Degrees Celsius 🥵
It doesn’t look like the temperature will drop any lower than about 20 degrees throughout the night..

This weather is so tricky for us, so PLEASE leave out cool boxes (or similar) if you have them 🙏🏻

No matter what the weather, we are always more than happy to spend the time putting your deliveries in a container.

Thank you in advance for your help in keeping deliveries as fresh as possible at this time of year ❤️

GREEK OR NATURAL… OR BOTH?! 😍

We’re proud to deliver Longley Farm Natural Yoghurt and Longley Farm Greek Style Yoghurt straight to your doorstep.

Both members of this duo are VERY POPULAR on our round. But both for different reasons and if you are yet to try one of these, then this is your sign 😏

But which one should you choose?

LONGLEY FARM NATURAL YOGURT
🥣 Pure and tangy, with a classic, refreshingly tart flavour.
🐮 Made from 100% British cows' milk with zero added sugar, artificial colours, preservatives or stabilisers.
❤️ Rich in protein and calcium with live cultures for great gut health.
🧑🏻‍🍳 The versatile kitchen hero because it’s perfect over fresh fruit and granola or stirred into curries, fajitas and marinades.

LONGLEY FARM GREEK STYLE YOGURT
🇬🇷 Authentically strained using traditional methods to create a thick, velvety, and indulgent texture.
💪🏼 Naturally higher in protein to keep you full and energised through the day.
🐮 Only British milk and live active cultures—no fillers or artificial thickeners.
😍 Pure luxury and heavenly when drizzled with honey and berries, or used as a richer, healthier alternative to sour cream and mayo.

With these you are supporting a Yorkshire Dairy and us - your Local Milkman!

So drop us a message or leave a note out with your bottles to add Longley Farm Natural or Greek Style Yoghurt to your next delivery 🏡

☀️ GOLDEN HOUR… BUT MAKE IT JUICY 🍊

Here is a post to remind you that weekly deliveries aren’t just all about the milk!

Picture opening the front door and sitting right there alongside your morning milk is a bottle of freshly pressed juice, glowing like pure liquid sunshine 😍

Did you know that we can deliver TEN different flavours of juice in glass bottles?

Pictured here is the absolute golden hour beaut that is Fresh Orange, then you can also see Apple & Mango, Peach Iced Tea and Cloudy Lemonade 🍋

All absolutely perfect, ice cold from the fridge on these gorgeous summer days. If you want to start your day off on an even brighter note by adding a juice to your delivery, then pop us a message and let us know 😋

WHAT WE SEE 🤩

Since we first started our rounds over 30 years ago, our family has been part of the daily rhythm of York.

While the city has changed around us, our commitment to delivering the freshest local dairy goods to your doorstep remains the same.

However, through all the seasons and all the rain, snow, ice and (temporary 😂) glorious sunshine, we get to see some amazing things. Lots of things that maybe wouldn’t catch your eye if you walked past at particular times of day or occasionally we will see something that would only ever occur in the depths of the night 🦉

When it comes to this incredible piece of artwork, there is usually cars parked next to it when we deliver down this street. But on this occasion, we could see it in all its beauty and appreciate the skill and talent for all its worth 🥰👏🏻

LETS TALK ABOUT MILKSHAKES…. 🍓🍌🍫

Did you know we deliver two different types of milkshakes, in two different sizes, from two different Yorkshire dairies?

😍 Double the Dairy, Double the Choice 😍

Here is the lowdown on our milkshake lineup and why both options are popular, delicious and deserve a spot in your fridge…

The Derby Hill Pint-Sized Classics 🐮

These yummy milkshakes come in one pint glass bottles, which means they are great for grabbing a few flavours at a time or sticking a straw right through that classic foil lid… and drinking the whole lot 🤭
They come in the flavours;
🍫 Chocolate
🍓 Strawberry
☕️ Coffee
🍌 Banana

The Greyleys Jersey Luxury Litres 🥛
If you have a busy household of milkshake lovers or just want the ultimate rich & creamy treat, then the one litre glass bottles from our good friends at Greyleys Jerseys are a game-changer.
Just as delicious as their gorgeous milk, they come in the flavours;
🍌 Banana
🍦 Vanilla
🍫 Chocolate
🍓 Strawberry

But the best part? They both keep it Green! 🌍

No matter which dairy you choose, you're getting your milkshakes in beautiful, traditional glass bottles. Just give them a quick rinse when you're done and pop them back out on the doorstep just like the good old days!

Let us know if you’d like to add any of these to your weekly order below 👇 or pop us a message/text and we can get one added for you.

LOOK AT OUR FLUFFY FRIENDS 🥰

How lucky are we to get to see these gorgeous faces when we collect our fresh milk from the VERY local Greyleys Jerseys!

This amazing farm provides us with the delicious jersey milk to deliver to your door, week in and week out 🏡

So if you were wanting milk delivered which has been produced by a cow who has been born and bred in York, then look no further…

This is your sign to pop us a message and so that you can have this milk in your fridge on the daily 😋

🦊🫣 THE REPEAT OFFENDER 🫣🦊

Let’s be honest, Mr Fox couldn’t appear more nonchalant if he tried…

However, we know exactly what he’s after and this takes ‘poached eggs’ to a different level 😂

We know that our large free-range eggs are delicious, but seriously they do seem to target us in all areas of York.

So if you want to know your deliveries are egg-stra (🤭) safe at all times, then please leave out a box with a lid on for us to pop your deliveries in!
