La Vergne Cheeses


The milk used in our fromargerie is non-homogenised  milk from our La Vergne Montbelliarde and Holstein cows. It is high in essential vitamins and minerals and has a deliciously rich, creamy and unique taste.


We want our finished products to be as natural as possible.


The process of homogenising milk,raises certain concerns, which are that  this process of forcing tiny fat particles through the milk, may make the body more at risk from heart attacks. Homogenisation allows an enzyme to pass directly in to the blood stream, where it attacks the tissues in the artery walls.
