The best farms
- 1DawliciousRaw milk & eggs · Hertford4.9 (585 reviews)Dawlicious is the Daw family's dairy at Amwell Place Farm in Hertford Heath, Hertfordshire, home to Barry, Jenny and Claire and their national award winning Bluegrass and Bluerock Jersey herd. The cows graze the fields for six months of the year, and the raw Jersey milk is never older than 24 hours, completely unpasteurised and unhomogenised, with no Bovaer additive in the feed.
Milk is sold from the vending machine at the farm every day, alongside Claire's Dawlicious ice cream made on site from the same milk, local free range eggs and local natural honey. Orders of 20 litres or more must be pre ordered by phone, payment is cash or card, and there is no delivery.
- 2Wayside FarmRaw milk · Kings Langley4.3 (557 reviews)Wayside Farm is one of only two remaining Jersey herd dairy farms in Hertfordshire, farmed by Charlie Wray on the outskirts of Kings Langley. Its 156 acres carry 75 Jersey cows and 70 young animals, nearly all born on the farm, on a county council holding first set up for officers returning from the First World War.
Raw Jersey milk is sold at the farm seven days a week, and a small farm shop opens Thursday to Sunday. Call in at the gate, or ring Charlie ahead of your visit if you want to check on milk.
- 3K&N HoneyRaw honey · Hitchin5 (41 reviews)K&N Honey is a small artisan honey producer based in Hitchin in Hertfordshire, making raw English honey in small batches. The honey is cold extracted and cold filtered rather than heated or pasteurised, which keeps the natural enzymes, proteins and character of each harvest in the jar.
The range shifts with the seasons and the region, taking in Hertfordshire wildflower and hedgerow honeys along with field bean, heather cut comb, sunflower and lime tree varieties from counties including Norfolk, Oxfordshire and Yorkshire. Everything sells through the online shop, with harvest updates by newsletter.

The Calf at Foot DairyRaw milk · Hitchin5 (8 reviews)The Calf at Foot Dairy is Fiona Provan's pioneering micro dairy at Warrens Green Farm near Hitchin, founded in 2012 on the conviction that dairy cows should keep their calves until their natural weaning age. Her Jersey cows are pasture fed, some crossed with native breeds so they thrive on grass alone, with no routine antibiotics, wormers or chemicals, and no soya or GMOs in the diet.
Every sale is direct from farmer to customer, which is what makes a true micro dairy, and the raw whole milk is ordered through the website's shop. Fiona also gives talks and offers visits, consultancy and mentoring for anyone hoping to start calf at foot dairying themselves. - 5
Irongate FarmMeat, fruit & veg · HitchinIrongate Farm, also known as Weston Park Farms, is the Cherry family's 500 hectare regenerative mixed farm at Weston near Hitchin in Hertfordshire, and the home of the Groundswell Regenerative Agriculture Festival. The family have farmed here for more than 35 years. After a 2010 trip to meet no till growers in America, farm manager John Cherry dropped cultivations altogether, and the farm has since moved from a heavy tillage arable system to a regenerative one: minimum tillage, herbal leys, cover crops, no insecticides, no artificial fertilisers and no routine antibiotics. An organic conversion is now under way.
Around 300 native cross suckler cows graze roughly 200 hectares of permanent pasture, parkland and rotational leys, mob grazed and Pasture for Life certified, alongside heritage grains, wheat, barley, oats, beans and linseed. A small no dig market garden on the farm grows chemical free seasonal vegetables sold through the farm's own veg scheme, through Lannock Larder and at local markets, and Pure Herts Honey from the farm's hives is sold at Lannock Larder too.

I never tasted such good cheese, raw milk, apple juice and honey in the UK before. Very good quality products!

What a lovely fresh jar of honey. K & N honey is absolutely delicious. My daughter has already decided it’s the only honey she will use from now on! Thanks for a great product.
