Would you be interested in a milk delivery in Wairarapa?
The clink of bottles of full cream milk being dropped off early in the morning may no longer be a distant memory if a Wairarapa food producer gets enough takers. Eketahuna Country Meats is setting up a milk processing plant with plans to bring glass bottles of the good stuff to Wellington markets, and possibly doorsteps.
The producer already has a presence at three of the capital's most popular weekend markets and has just started a campaign to gauge demand for household delivery of farm fresh milk. Are you interested?
