01 — The Farm
A certified organic Jersey farm just outside Orewa
Magnolia Dairy is a small certified organic dairy farm sitting just outside Orewa on Weranui Road, north of Auckland. The herd is Jersey — the breed traditionally prized for milk that’s naturally richer in butterfat and protein, with that warm golden colour you only get from cows on pasture.
The farm is rated Tier 3 Regenerative on the Out the Farm Gate scale — meaning the land, the soil, and the herd are managed with regenerative principles at the core. No shortcuts. No industrial tricks. Just a real working dairy doing things the way they used to be done.
“Pure, simple, organic milk — exactly as nature intended.”

02 — The Milk
Real, whole, raw — the way milk used to be
Most milk on supermarket shelves has been homogenised, pasteurised, and standardised within an inch of its life. Magnolia Dairy’s milk hasn’t. It’s raw, whole, and full-cream — exactly as it leaves the cow, with all the butterfat, flavour, and natural cream still where it belongs.
Selling raw milk in New Zealand isn’t something you do casually. Magnolia Dairy is fully MPI certified — meaning the farm meets the strict national standards required to sell raw milk direct from the farm to the public. It’s the old-school way, with modern food safety standards keeping everyone honest.
