Origin Earth Drops Price of Milk
Local boutique dairy company Origin Earth has announced a reduction in the price of their 2 litre bottles of milk.
Origin Earth director, Joanie Williams said “The price that we pay for our raw milk is inextricably linked with the
price that farmers receive from Fonterra.”
She went on to say, “As you will be aware Fonterra has reduced its forecast payout for the coming season which in turn
has the reduced the cost of our raw milk. As a result we are pleased to be able to pass this cost saving on our Hawke’s
Bay customers and as from today, 12 December 2014, the recommended retail price for our 2 litre bottles of milk drops
from $5.80 to $5.50. We also feel that this price drop will put our all natural whole milk within reach of even more
customers and look forward to welcoming these new customers to enjoying milk the way it used to be.”

which currently produces fresh cow and sheep milk, pot set yoghurt and a range of cheeses.
