It's World Environment Day and we’re renewing our promise to look after the backyard we all share.

You can’t get good milk from a tired planet.

When we protect the earth, we’re protecting the quality of what ends up on your table.

What small steps are you taking this year to include more eco-friendly habits into your routine?
Here are a few suggestions to get you started:

🌱 Upcycle Your Containers
Repurpose empty dairy tubs as starter pots for a kitchen herb garden.

🗑️ Reduce Your Food Waste
Shop your fridge. This means planning meals around what you already have in the fridge, which prevents unnecessary waste and saves money.

♻️ Prep Your Recycling
Ensure packaging actually makes it through the recycling process by quickly rinsing and flattening cartons.

World Milk Day forms part of our commitment to corporate social investment, with a focus on child nutrition and early childhood development in our local communities. We believe that investing in our children is investing in a brighter future for everyone.

This year, we supported Mzingisi Primary School and Masikhule Crèche in KwaNomzamo, Humansdorp, by donating First Choice Milk to their young learners.

Menstrual Hygiene Day is an important moment in South Africa and around the world to address period poverty, challenge stigma, and promote healthy menstrual hygiene management, so that women and girls can manage their periods with dignity and have access to the resources they need.

This Menstrual Hygiene Day, we reached out to schools across South Africa, providing menstrual hygiene packs and raising awareness in communities where support is needed most:

📍 Eastern Cape
🔹 Makukhanye Primary School
🔹 Kruisfontein Primary School
🔹 Sea Vista Primary School

📍 KwaZulu-Natal
🔹 Columbia Primary School
🔹 Damorosa Secondary School
🔹 Shallcross Secondary School

📍 Western Cape
🔹 Bernadino Heights Secondary School
🔹 Scottsdene Secondary School

📍 Gauteng
🔹 UJ Academy Maths, Science & ICT School of Specialisation
🔹 Davey Secondary School

Menstrual health and dignity are a right. We are proud to be part of a movement that says no girl should miss school because of her period.

At Woodlands Dairy, our commitment extends beyond producing high-quality dairy products. We remain deeply committed to the well-being of the communities we serve.

For the Good of All.

Woodlands Dairy supports sustainable beekeeping in the Eastern Cape by partnering with Infinite Industries and Botes Honey Farms to manufacture sustainable, durable beehives from recycled Tetra Pak® liquid board packaging.

These upcycled, honey-badger-resistant hives, which maintain the same temperature as wooden ones, promote bee health while reducing landfill waste.

We source our First Choice Honey from resident beekeepers in the Eastern Cape, focusing on 100% pure, "choice grade" honey harvested from indigenous flora 🐝

Did you know? 🐄

A cow doesn’t actually have four separate stomachs; it has one stomach with four distinct compartments: the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum.

This specialised system allows cows to break down tough plant fibers through fermentation, re-chew their cud for better digestion and efficiently absorb vital nutrients.

The rumen alone can hold up to 190 liters and acts as a powerful fermentation chamber. It's filled with microbes that help digest grass and silage, making every single bite count.
