Barney Sampson and Jonathon Harrington join Andrew and Rachel Giles

Maesllwch Farm Walk

Hay Festival 2019, 

Come and see how the Giles’ herd of dairy cows produce most of their milk from grass. Visitors can enter the milking parlour, help to milk some of the cows and see the young calves. Learn how the cows are fed and find out how their four stomachs enable them to digest grass. Samples of dairy products will be provided for tasting and a cheese maker will explain the art and science beneath the rind.

With thanks to Rachel and Andrew Giles
