OPINION: A Waikato dairy farm is getting behind a new initiative to help cafes and the dairy sector cut down on the use of single-use milk bottles by the thousands each year.
The Udder Way is a twoyear- old Australian company selling 18-litre milk kegs for baristas to reduce their plastic milk bottle use by up to an estimated 10,000 per cafe each year.
The Tasmania-based business claims it has eliminated 1.6 million milk bottles from waste by connecting its kegs up to milk dispensers or taps at Australian hospitality outlets.
In its first New Zealand play, The Udder Way kegs are now being filled with organic and non-organic milk by boutique dairy company Green Valley Dairies from its Mangatāwhiri factory in North Waikato.
A big win for the dairy industry, hospitality sector and the environment.
