Winter Tarn Dairy was founded in 2009 by husband-and-wife team Jeremy and Tricia Jackson, with a little help from their family. After moving back to Cumbria to run their own dairy farm the family started the business up with the aim of making a better price for the milk they produced.

It all started when they first attended a local Saturday Farmers’ Market to sell some of the cheeses they’d made in collaboration with a local dairy. They very quickly found that they had requests to expand their range and in no time at all they were producing butter too!
