Forest Farm is an award winning organic dairy, nestled in the heart of Aberdeenshire. It is home to our small herd of happy organic cows who have the freedom to roam and graze on lush green pastures, just as nature intended!
About UsAs Scotland’s oldest organic dairy, we believe our artisan products are the purest and most natural you can find, all the way from grass to glass and cow to cone!
Our ProductsHow we produce, source and package our food and drink has never been more important.
Sustainability
As farmers we see first-hand the incredible power of nature.
The best way to reduce our emissions is to reach for renewables and soak up that sun.
We have recently installed 480 solar panels (240kw) at the farm, which generates electricity for our gelato kitchen and gelateria, pizzeria and farm facilities. And… that’s just the start. We have some exciting battery and plug in plans!
Our grass and clover pastures also capture sunlight, converting carbon dioxide and water to oxygen and energy for our cows.
From soil to sale we do everything to reduce and reuse energy on our farm. We've installed fancy new equipment which harnesses the natural heat from warm cows milk as it goes through our cooling system and we use it to help heat the water used in our creamery. We do the same with the heat energy from our production refrigeration units.
Converting to LED lighting, maximising insulation and installing thermostats and timers to switch on appliances also plays its part.
