Christmas Break 2023

It’s the end of the year and a good opportunity to thank to all our customers who’ve been supporting this demanding but essential type of farming production. It was never an easy job, but with the increasing climate developments it's getting to be a real challenge. Nevertheless, the Milmore team is taking a well-earned break over the solstice/New Year period. Our last dispatch day will be 21st Dec, final orders should be with us by the 18th December. Orders received over the holiday period will only be logged and will be dispatched between 10th and 14th January 2024. We are happy to take up normal ordering again from Friday 5th January 2024.
In the meantime may the Milmore Team wish a very blessed, calm Christmas time and a safe transition into 2024!

Major delays at the courier companies before Xmas

Best to order today if you like to get your organic flour from Milmore before Xmas The courier companies are already now about one week behind their normal schedule, which means the deliveries are enormously delayed. A parcel to the North Island would need now about 10 days.

OUR DINKEL/Spelt is harvested!

All Dinkel/spelt products will be available very soon. Lots of customers will be pleased that it is available again. Again it was not easy with the new even less predictable weather patterns to grow a healthy grain. We had to wait so long before we could bring the seeds into the ground, it was June, which is extremely late. But the harvest looks good and some hot days made it possible to harvest our favourite grain!

BioGro Chook Wheat available

Here's a bargain for those of you with poultry! Normally we sell our grains and flours for human consumption only, but one of our farm suppliers had big issues getting in his wheat and the line doesn't meet our strict baking quality criteria. However, it is still a high quality feed grain, ideal for your free range flock.

Tree Planting on Milmore Downs for CO2 Capture

Everybody of us has his/her own CO2 footprint on our planet, smaller ones and bigger ones. Altogether we in the industrialised world produce far too much and need to avoid what we can. At the same time we want to compensate what we can't avoid and contribute to climate repair. One is to plant trees, but not everyone has practically access to land, and that's where we can help.

Are you motivated? You can visit our linked site www.carbon.org.nz and see the many advantageous effects of tree planting.

Contact us (at the moment only under our email address (milmoredownsnz@gmail.com) to realize your dream and contribution. Your motivation can make it happen that more and more trees grow for a better climate.

We tried to find out about the original cover in the valley and there are some very small pockets in gullies on the farms down toward Waikari. You can get a bit of an idea. We want to re-establish natives in that style – looking back toward the cover that was here before those hill became the 'Black Hills' due to a major fire set by an Oat/chaff mill in the 1870's. It burnt from Waikari to the coast!
