Milk changes with the seasons ❄️🌸🏖🍂

Just like the diverse pastures our cows eat, the milk they produce naturally changes throughout the year. As you can see, the fat and protein levels shift as cows move through different stages of the season 🐮

For many yoghurt makers, this natural variation is managed by using milk powder as a way to standardise the milk and create a consistent product year-round.

At Re, we chose a different path.

We wanted to keep the benefits of fresh, whole milk, with nothing removed and no milk powder added. Instead, we work with the milk we have, adjusting our straining process throughout the year to account for these natural changes in composition 👌

This means every batch of Re starts with 100% fresh regenerative milk from our farm, then our yoghurt makers carefully adapt the process to create the thick, creamy texture you know and love 💜

Because great yoghurt doesn't start in the factory. It starts in the paddock. 🌱

🥛 Why does the omega-6 ratio matter?

Both omega-3 and omega-6 are essential fats, which means your body needs them but can’t make them on its own. The catch is that most modern diets already contain plenty of omega-6, while omega-3 intake is often lower than ideal.

Why does that matter? Because it’s not just about getting these fats in your diet — it’s about the balance between them. A lower omega-6 ratio is generally considered more favourable because it reflects a better balance of these important fats.

That’s where our farming system comes in.

Research on our regenerative farm found that milk from our regenerative herd contained more omega-3s and a lower omega-6 ratio than milk from the conventional herd. The difference comes from what our cows eat: diverse, pasture-based diets grown using regenerative farming practices.

It’s a great example of how looking after the land can influence the food we produce, and why the quality and balance of the fats in your food matters.

Good for the farm. Good for you 💜

What if the way your food is grown changed what's actually in it?

Research from Lincoln University compared milk from our regenerative dairy farm with conventionally farmed dairy and found higher levels of omega-3s, beneficial fatty acids and a wider range of phytonutrients in our milk.

We didn't add anything. These differences start with the way we farm: diverse pastures, healthy soils and cows grazing the way nature intended 🐮

It's one more reason we believe good food starts with healthy land 🪱

❄️ Winter grazing is almost done for our early calving cows and our first calf of the season could arrive any day now! 🐄💚

Winter is one of the more challenging parts of dairy farming. We’re always working with nature, and sometimes that means putting our plans in the hands of the weather gods 🌧🌈

This winter started out incredibly dry, before the rain arrived with a vengeance over the past couple of weeks. Managing cows through these conditions takes careful planning, patience and a lot of observation.

This season, one of our herds was wintered on grass and straw, while our other herd was wintered on oats, silage and straw. These videos of both were taken on the day the rain finally eased after the deluge 💦

We were stoked to see that the paddocks held up well, and big fresh breaks each day allowed everything to have a rest. Most importantly, happy cows with full bellies and plenty of feed.

Healthy soils, thoughtful management and resilient farming systems all play a part in helping us navigate whatever the season throws at us.

Next stop: calves! 🐮✨

Did you know that we have a youtube channel for Farms ?

Most of the videos are about the regenerative trial we have been running for the last 5 years, but there is also a video tour of Clareview if you are curious to see more of where your yoghurt comes from 😁

Gut health is important year round, but it's extra important during the cold winter months 🥶

Your immune system and your gut are more connected than most people realise, with the majority of your immune cells living in your gut.🦠

So when the cold hits and everyone around you is getting sick, what you're feeding your microbiome actually matters. 😷

Probiotics (the live, beneficial bacteria in a properly fermented yoghurt) help maintain that balance. We add 5 different probiotics to our fresh, regeneratively farmed whole milk, which ferments into our award winning Re yoghurt.

Support your gut this winter 💜
