Organic dairy business Paris Creek Farm has announced all its products are now sourced from carbon neutral dairy farms. The South Australian dairies have achieved carbon neutrality through bio-dynamic farming practices and supplemented in part by purchasing carbon credits.
One of the farms supplying Paris Creek Farms was already carbon neutral due to the highly regenerative nature of its bio-dynamic organic farming practices. The other farms are implementing measures that work towards carbon neutrality, and in the meantime Paris Creek Farms is purchasing carbon credits to completely offset any carbon footprint.
For Paris Creek Farms, part of Maggie Beer Holdings, CEO Chantale Millard, the achievement is a key step in the company’s sustainability journey to reduce its carbon footprint and help fight climate change.
“We have had all farms audited by an accredited body and are delighted to be making such progress in our mission to create a better environment for generations to come,” Millard said, adding that farms are also having their soil tested as part of sustainability checks.
“We are excited to be working with our farmers to help them all achieve carbon neutral status and are proud to produce products that are from such sustainable and regenerative farming practices.”
The shift to milk from carbon neutral dairy farms coincides with the introduction of Paris Creek’s latest product, 100 per cent Organic Lactose Free Full Cream Milk.
“Crafted from the milk of free-range cows who roam happily on South Australia’s beautiful open pastures, our lactose free product serves an important part of our customer base and continues our emphasis on great taste, quality, and sustainability.
“Our products are made with no chemicals, preservatives or hormones, with animal welfare and sustainability always coming first,” Ms Millard said.
Paris Creek Farms Organic Lactose Free Full Cream Milk 2L is available now in select Woolworths and leading independent supermarkets.
