ORGANIC SEPTEMBER
Every September, the Soil Association’s annual Organic September campaign offers us the opportunity to reflect on what organic really means to us and celebrate our organic produce, from our Creamery to our Bakery and beyond.
SIMPLE ORGANIC SWAPS
At Daylesford, we champion organic throughout the year, from the fresh produce picked in our Market Garden to the high-welfare meat on our butcher’s counters. There are simple swaps we can all make in our usual food shops to live a more environmentally conscious lifestyle. No idea where to start? Why not try our Organic Dairy Box, Artisan Bread or Seasonal Market Garden produce?
SIMPLE ORGANIC SWAPS
At Daylesford, we believe that the choices we all make every day have real consequences, for our soil, our environment, wildlife, our animals and our own health & wellbeing. If you don't know where to start, we recommend making small, simple switches to your daily essentials. Find some of our favourites in our Organic September edit.

OUR BAKERY
We bake award-winning organic bread, cakes and pastries each day in the Bakery on our farm. We use slow fermentation methods in order to develop the flavours, and shape loaves by hand in the true artisan way without the use of additives or chemicals. The fresh baked goods arrive in our farmshops just a few hours after leaving the Bakery.
OUR MARKET GARDEN
We grow over 300 varieties of seasonal organic fruit, vegetables, salad leaves and herbs on our 28 acre Market Garden at Daylesford, including many unusual and heritage varieties.
You can find much of this fresh produce in our farmshops, in the dishes served in our café, on our food-to-go counters and in our award-winning ready-to-cook meals and soups, jams and chutneys.
OUR CREAMERY
The creamy, rich milk from our organic herd travels just yards from the milking parlour to the Creamery on our farm, where it is transformed into award-winning cheeses as well as delicious yoghurt, butter, buttermilk and kefir.
The milk itself really is something special, thanks to the clover-rich grass pasture enjoyed by our cows. We choose not to homogenise our milk because we prefer to leave it in its natural form, with thick cream that rises to the top.
OUR KITCHENS
A dedicated artisan team make our award-winning ‘real meals’ in the kitchens on our farm.
The broths, soups, and braises are made by hand in small batches, using fresh organic ingredients. Ready to reheat and ideal for freezing, they are perfect for times you want to enjoy a nourishing, flavourful meal at home without having to worry about shopping, cooking or washing up.
OUR BUTCHER
Our animals are raised organically in line with the Soil Association’s high standards. We are committed to rearing our high-welfare animals organically and slowly, in harmony with nature, from their natural diets to the freedom to roam our lush organic pastures. We take the greatest care at every step of our animals’ lives – we even built our own abattoir to ensure the best welfare, reducing food miles and stress, for better tasting meat.
OUR SMOKEHOUSE
Our smoked salmon is made by hand on our farm in small batches, using sustainably caught fish from British waters and a secret smoking recipe including juniper, beech and oak.
The modern, thick sashimi-cut style accentuates the texture and naturally sweet flavour of each slice. Delicious on its own, or with scrambled Legbar eggs, creamy avocado or farmhouse butter and our fruity pumpernickel bread.
