West Middlewick FarmRaw milk farm in Tiverton4.8 (324 reviews)West Middlewick is a traditional dairy farm at Nomansland in the heart of Devon, run by the Gibson family, and it has sold raw milk from the farm since 1964. The closed herd of around 80 grass fed British Friesian and Friesian cross Jersey cows roams the fields around the farm and produces A2 milk, bottled fresh every day and sold as award winning raw milk alongside a pasteurised line. The farm also keeps about 120 sheep, pigs and around 100 chickens, and grows most of the animals' food itself.
The farm shop has grown from an honesty box into a recently converted old shippon, selling fresh raw milk, farm reared meats and local Devon produce, with the Hayloft cafe alongside. The family are members of the Raw Milk Producers Association and were among the first farms in the area awarded Mid Tier Countryside Stewardship. Campers and self catering guests stay on the working farm in log pods and camping pitches, and the farm hosts an Open Farm Sunday each year with a cream tea.Coastal Goats Goat MilkRaw milk farmCoastal Goats is the goat dairy of Smallacombe Farm, a family run organic farm near Dawlish in Devon that has been certified organic since 2003. The milk is made slowly and honestly, with a range that covers raw goats milk, gently pasteurised milk, yoghurt and a certified organic goat milk kefir.
Everything is sold by delivery. Order online and the milk is dispatched chilled to your door, with subscriptions available if you want a regular supply, and the range is also stocked by retailers across Devon and Cornwall.
