Milk from farmers who keep their calves with their mothers now available in Dutch stores !

October 19, 2022

The calves are not directly taken away from their mother when they are born, which happens almost always, but they can stay with their mother for a longer period of time (usually a few months). Because of this, the calves are also not transported when they are very little (2-3 weeks), which is a great improvement for them.  A world in which everyone eats plant-based, … [Read more...] about Milk from farmers who keep their calves with their mothers now available in Dutch stores !

These calves are much healthier, both physioogically and mentally. We first discussed this idea … [Read more...] about Meeting with EkoPlaza, NL

Dairy cow with calf

Both male and female calves stay … [Read more...] about Visit of dairy farm “De Regte Heijden” in Riel, NL

Our most recent newsletter

Dear friends,

I first discovered the bad side of factory-farming and industrial slaughter when I was a young girl of twelve.
