Welcome & Namaste

Namaste and welcome. High in the mist-covered valleys of the Himalayas, our dairy project is more than just cheese-making—it is a labor of love. Here, our cattle graze on wild mountain herbs and drink from glacial streams, producing a milk so pure it carries the very essence of Nepal.

Each wheel of our cheese is hand-turned and cave-aged, honouring the quiet wisdom of the mountains and the resilient spirit of our local farmers. We invite you to taste the altitude, the heritage, and the heart of the Himalayas.

Our Story

​In 2025, during a visit to Nepal for an old age home project, we spent time in rural villages and closely observed local life. One thing that stood out was the abundance of fresh milk produced by villagers every day. Despite the hard work involved, milk was being sold at a very low price, and many farmers had limited options to add value to their products. As a cheesemaker, this raised an important question: What if this milk could be transformed into high-quality dairy products that create better income opportunities for local communities? With this vision, we decided to take action. With the generous support of donors, we organized practical cheesemaking training for local villagers. Soon after, a small caserei (cheese-making unit) was established, allowing hands-on learning and real production to begin. Today, this initiative is not just about cheese. It is about skill-sharing, sustainable livelihoods, and respecting local resources. By combining traditional milk production with professional cheesemaking knowledge, we aim to support farmers, empower communities, and create honest, high-quality dairy products with purpose.

Fuel Our Work

Your support helps us train local villagers—especially women—in cheesemaking, providing them with practical skills that create sustainable livelihoods. In many rural communities, women are the backbone of family farming, yet they often have limited opportunities to generate income or access training. By focusing on empowering women, we aim to strengthen households, foster independence, and nurture future generations.

Through our programmes, fresh milk is transformed into high-quality dairy products, creating new opportunities for local farmers to earn fair value for their work. Every contribution—big or small—directly empowers communities, preserves local traditions, and brings our mission to life. With your help, we can expand training, provide necessary equipment, and continue building a small but growing caserie where villagers gain hands-on experience and confidence.

Together, we are not just making cheese—we are creating meaningful change, supporting women in leadership, and helping communities thrive sustainably. Join us in fuelling this work, and be a part of a story that transforms lives, celebrates local resources, and ensures that every drop of milk counts.
