From the Milmore Downs Team!
We wanted to say a HUGE thank you to all of our amazing customers for your incredible support this year! It means the world to us.
We'll be taking a short break over the holidays to recharge and prepare for an exciting new year.
The mill will be open for orders again starting January 13th.
We wish you all a joyous holiday season filled with warmth and happiness! 🎄
It’s the end of the year and a good opportunity to thank to all our customers who’ve been supporting this demanding but essential type of farming production. It was never an easy job, but with the increasing climate developments it's getting to be a real challenge. Nevertheless, the Milmore team is taking a well-earned break over the solstice/New Year period. Our last dispatch day will be 20th Dec, final orders should be with us by the 17th December. Orders received over the holiday period will only be logged and will be dispatched between 9th and 12th January 2024. We are happy to take up normal ordering again from Friday 6th January 2024.
In the meantime may we wish a very blessed, calm Christmas time and a safe transition into 2024!
