Recently our van trip has been milk free. Seems they don’t do milk in bottles in France. But if you are lucky, they do do milk in machines. Check out this milk dispenser outside a huge supermarket chain. Thats us filling our water bottle with fresh, cool milk!

And now some forward thinking folk in the U.K have invested

Happy World Milk Day from Nunton Farm Dairy! Come to our Open Farm Sunday on the 11th June to sample our milk from our brand new vending machine, which will be located outside the Radnor Arms, Nunton, from the 17th July onwards. Yay @nuntonfarm on Facebook for lots more info.

And this was taken from the website

The Milk vending machine is now open!!!  Fresh milk is available every day. We are very excited to be have this new facility to enable customers to help themselves to milk  from a vending machine, recycling glass bottles and  reducing plastic bottle wastage. We would like to thank the many customers who have already been  to use the vending machine for their support.
The machine can be found at
Whitegate Farm, Norwich Road, Creeting St Mary, Suffolk, IP6 8PG

Buying milk straight from the farm is one way to make sure dairy producers get a fair deal.

Some produce pasteurised milk, others sell raw or unpasteurised and a few have a wider dairy range to try. 

Farmers Weekly has created a map of British farmers selling direct to the public – cutting out the supermarket or middleman.

Click on the map below to find on-farm dairies near you where you can buy direct, if you’re a consumer, or, if you’re a dairy farmer selling direct, you can send us your details and we’ll add you to the map .https://www.fwi.co.uk/business/map-buy-milk-direct-farm

Did you know about milk refill dispensing machines? Yes they exist.


And Here’s another great scheme. Dairies are supplying shops with churns so people can get a refill. Check out the map https://buff.ly/3cCznM6

Can’t get to Suffolk? There are still some milk men who deliver in glass bottles. Check this list. If you know of any others please add to it.
