Wairiri Buffalo are an incredible local company making some outstanding products, with awards to support the claim!
We are stocking a variety of their products weekly. At current this range includes Feta, Halloumi, Burrata, Mozzarella, Yoghurt and Labneh.
A few exerpts from their website:
Wairiri Buffalo is home to Italian Water Buffalo, Pukeko, Heron and dedicated people committed to sustainable and symbiotic living with the land.
This 100 acre farm encompasses a 40 acre native forest and wetland reserve that has remained unchanged for thousands of years.
We are totally organic, the buffalo are free grazing and winter feed is harvested from our farm. Many people who cannot tolerate cows milk, can tolerate buffalo milk due to protein type.
The packaging we use is home compostable vacuum packaging. If you do not have compost use it as a fire starter (it burns cleanly) or simply add to landfill where it will return as harmless organic compounds.
