A new dairy for our Island

Sark is Open for Business! 

Our little island has experienced some trials in recent times. We believe that this project will stir islanders’ hearts, strengthening their resolve to return to self-sufficiency.

The plan is to create a sustainable dairy that contributes to the economy as well as the spirit of the community. A dairy that Sark can be proud of.

We need to raise a sum of £480,000 to complete the project. As you read our website please consider how you can help.

Sark Dairy is up and running and open for business. Our island has a history of producing the absolute highest quality dairy products - so this project is good for you and it’s good for Sark.

Goodness, Worth Every Penny

The project will cost £480,000 of which £120,000 has already been pledged. The Trustees are seeking sponsorship for the infrastructure that will be publicly owned.

Goodness, Sark went Viral

Sark’s pursuit of a new farmer was hot news on a BBC blog, and as a result the island has engaged the services of a dynamic couple, Jason & Katharine Salisbury.

Currently, the couple's pedigree Guernseys at Whitegate Farm near Ipswich provide milk for their hand-made Suffolk cheeses.

Jason is a prize-winning cattle breeder and Katharine is a cheesemaker and vet - the perfect pairing. They wholeheartedly believe in the future of small farming and artisanal produce.
