Oh, how I wish I could invest. Both of my parents grew up on dairy farms. Both families were put out of business by big dairy and governmental over regulations. Now we're all wage slaves instead of freeholders.

I put in just a little - I can't get ethical dairy here - lucky to get organic really. It would be super if they had a nationwide reach!

Thanks for the reminder, their email is sliding into the to-do archive as I read.. (lethal place, things get lost in there for years! 😱)
I'll find some pennies to invest. Won't be much, but I'd really like for them to succeed.

We get cheese delivered from The Ethical Dairy sometimes (can I post links to external shops?), they're in Dumfries.
They've really upped their prices since the crises, but they do deliver to us last time I checked, so they might also deliver to Skye?
The new highland courier seems to be having trouble, we just had a pet food order cancelled because of it. So maybe wait until that mess is sorted out.

I checked not long ago and they can't deliver here (I'd like to stock it in my shop for resale) because of the distance and the fact it needs to be chilled it is awkward here.

external links are fine (subject to publishing standards) :)

That's disappointing! Sorry Nancy, I thought I was bringing good news 😏
