About Us

Doing Dairy, Differently.

Welcome to Déjà-Moo Microdairy, where every drop of milk takes you on a nostalgic journey to the simplicity of days gone by. Located near Ballito in the heart of coastal KZN, we redefine your milk experience with artisan, locally produced milky goodness supplied in traditional glass bottles.

Déjà-Moo is a play on the French word ‘déjà-vu’… which literally means ‘already seen’. This reflects our vision to return to traditional farming practices which put food quality, animal welfare and environmental stewardship at the forefront of our activities.

Our happy free-range Jersey herd roam freely on luscious pastures contributing to the rich, creamy goodness of our milk. Our commitment to regenerative farming means our cows graze on chemical-free pastures, with environmentally friendly management practices.

We prioritise high animal welfare, keeping our happy cows and calves together until weaning at 3-6 months. Our low stress environment means happier and healthier animals, resulting in healthier and tastier milk.

HAPPY COWS

A cow without stress is a happier and healthier cow, and this results in better quality
products. Our small herd of loved Jersey girls know their names and are doted on hoof-and- hoof. We keep our cows with their calves at foot for 3-6 months until weaning, milk-sharing with the calf.

GRASS FED

Our girls have ample access to quality grazing 24/7, and are kept free-range with regular paddock rotation. Their grass-rich diet results in top quality creamy milk. Our diverse pastures have trees as natural shade which helps mitigate effects of the hot and wet KZN climate.

SUSTAINABLE

Everything we do has sustainability in mind. From rotational grazing, planting trees,
regenerative farming principles, plans to be off-grid, reusable packaging, recyclable labels, keeping distribution local and aiming to lower carbon emissions. Sustainability is not optional.
