🧅 The Humble Onion — and why you should never throw any of it away.

We've been cooking with onions our whole lives, but most of us are only using half of what this incredible plant has to offer.

In our latest blog post, we're diving deep into one of nature's most complete and underrated foods — from the layers of the flesh right down to the papery skin.

Here's what we cover:

✨ Why eating the whole onion (including the outer layers) gives you the most nutrition — including quercetin, allicin, and natural prebiotics
🫖 How to make a simple onion water tonic and onion tea for immune support, circulation, and respiratory health
🌿 How to dry the peel and use it as a herb and spice in your everyday cooking — rich in antioxidants and incredible depth of flavour
🌱 Why onion scraps are gold for your compost pile — and how they support a healthy, living soil
🪲 How to turn onion water into a natural, chemical-free pesticide for your kitchen garden

This is whole-food, zero-waste, traditional wisdom — the kind of knowledge that used to be passed down in every household, and that we think deserves to be kept alive.

Dear All

We have some exciting news about how your orders will reach you from now on — and we think you're going to like it.

🚚 Straight to your doorstep — in 72 hours

We are saying goodbye to Fastdrop , or even pick-up and taking full control of how your food travels to you. From now on, you place your order, we process it, and it arrives directly at your doorstep within 72 hours. No more bulk shipping delays. No more waiting around. You order, it moves — simple as that.

❄️ Cold, all the way

Because we only ship cold food, keeping your order at the right temperature from our farm to your door isn't optional — it's everything. That's why we are switching to Woolcool insulated boxes, made from natural sheep's wool and designed specifically to keep food perfectly cold throughout the entire journey. Your order will arrive exactly as it left us — fresh, cold, and farm-made.

Woolcool is also fully biodegradable and sustainable, which fits exactly with how we do things here on the farm.

📬 A small change to shipping costs

Shipping costs have risen by over 20% in recent weeks. Rather than pass that fully on to you, we've chosen to absorb the majority of it ourselves. From now on, a flat €10 shipping fee applies to all orders under €100. Orders of €100 or more continue to ship free. We believe that's fair, and it allows us to keep our product prices exactly where they are — unchanged, and we intend to keep it that way.

🎁 A little reward for loyal customers

We're also introducing something new. If you place one order of €40 and follow it with an order of €60, we will send you a coupon code giving you free shipping on your next order. Our way of saying thank you for coming back.

We don't take your trust for granted. The same quality, the same care, the same honest farm food — that never changes.

Any questions at all, just reach out. We're always happy to hear from you.


With gratitude,

Country Comfort Farma

🐔 A farewell to a faithful hen. 🌿

For 3 years, she gave us her eggs every single day without fail. When her laying days were over, she wasn't forgotten — she gave us one last gift: a rich, nourishing broth. And finally, a beautiful meal.

On the plate today: slow-roasted hen, sauerkraut, pickled gherkins, and beetroot — all from last year's harvest. Her bones? Crushed and returned to the soil, feeding the garden that feeds us.

🌱 But here's what makes this meal truly different from anything you'll find in a supermarket:

❌ Never vaccinated
❌ Never given antibiotics
❌ Never washed in chlorine

Yes — most supermarket chickens are routinely treated with antibiotics during their short lives, and in many countries, carcasses are washed in chlorine or other chemical solutions to mask the effects of overcrowded, unsanitary conditions. You don't see that on the label.

This hen lived freely. She ate real food. She was healthy because her environment was healthy — not because she was medicated to survive it. That is the difference between a living creature raised with care and a product manufactured for profit.

This is what true self-sufficiency looks like. No supermarket. No chemicals. No shortcuts. Just a deep, honest relationship with the animals and the land that sustains us. Every part honoured. Every part is used. Every part appreciated. 🙏

From egg to table to earth — the full circle. 💚

Something has to be said.

When we first started shipping to Malta, the cost was €4.50, then it became €6.50 per kilo. Today, that same kilo costs €24 to send.
We haven't changed. The farm hasn't changed. The quality of what we raise, cure, and pack hasn't changed. But the reality of getting it to you has become something we can no longer quietly absorb.
We're not writing this to complain. We're writing it because we believe you deserve honesty — not a price hike with no explanation, not a quietly discontinued product, and not a version of Country Comfort Farma that cuts corners to make the numbers work.
We're working through this. Looking at bundles, minimum orders, and smarter ways to pack a box so that the shipping cost makes sense for both sides. We wanted to let you know what we're up against before anything changes.
Your support — every order, every share, every message — is what makes us keep problem-solving instead of giving up. Thank you for that.
More soon. 🌿

After 4 hours of hands-on work, our first batch of coriander and black pepper cheese is finally ready for drying. There's something deeply satisfying about transforming 10 liters of fresh milk into something you can hold in your hands — and taste the care in every bite.
A well-earned break: thick sourdough, still warm from the oven, and a generous piece of fresh Country Comfort Farma cheese. This is what regenerative farming tastes like.
From our kitchen to your table — Good food, honest methods.

Raw Milk from Our Neighbours' Cows: A Living Food
This morning, we collected 10 litres of fresh milk directly from our neighbours' cows—still warm, thick with cream, and absolutely untouched by industrial processing. No UHT. No UHP. No plastic cartons with their chemical linings. Just milk as it has been consumed for generations.
What Makes Raw Milk Different
When milk leaves the cow, it's a living food. It contains beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and proteins in their natural state. These microorganisms—often called the milk's "microbiome"—are part of how our bodies were designed to process this nutrient-dense food.
Industrial pasteurisation heats milk to extreme temperatures, killing not only harmful pathogens but also the beneficial bacteria and enzymes that aid digestion. Ultra-high temperature (UHT) and ultra-high pressure (UHP) processing take this further, essentially rendering milk shelf-stable but also fundamentally altered at a molecular level.
The packaging matters too. Commercial milk often sits in cartons lined with plastic and chemical coatings—materials designed to preserve shelf life, not to nourish the person drinking it.
Why Fresh, Raw Milk Matters
Raw milk from healthy, grass-fed cows contains:
Natural enzymes that help us digest lactose and absorb nutrients
Beneficial bacteria including lactobacilli, which support gut health
Complete protein structures intact and bioavailable
Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) in their most potent forms
Minerals like calcium and magnesium in forms our bodies recognises
Drinking milk this fresh—still warm from the cow—connects us to real food. Your body knows what to do with it.
A Growing Movement Toward Real Milk
The shift back to raw milk is gaining momentum across Europe. In the UK, several farms have installed vending machines dispensing fresh raw milk directly to consumers—no middleman, no processing, no waste. People queue at these farm vending machines because they understand: this is food in its most honest form.
What was once normal—accessing fresh milk directly from the farmer—is becoming remarkable again. That's a sign of how far we've drifted from real food. But it's also a sign of how many people are waking up to what their bodies actually need.
The Trust of Direct Sourcing
We're fortunate to live among neighbours who keep their cows well. We know the animals, we know the conditions, and we know the care that goes into every milking. This relationship—farmer to neighbour to table—is where food safety and food quality come together naturally.
There's no middleman, no storage facility, no processing plant. Just milk in its truest form, from people we trust, to our glass bottles, to our tables.

The fava beans are up. 🌱
After soaking, chitting on the hessian sack and sowing them out, the first shoots are now above ground — and there is something deeply satisfying about seeing that happen every single time.
But this spring has thrown us a challenge. March was dry. April has been even drier. And dry soil at germination and early establishment stage is one of the harder things to manage, because young seedlings have a shallow root system that can't yet reach deeper moisture. They are entirely dependent on what's happening in that top layer of soil.
Our solution — mulch. And not just any mulch.
As soon as the seedlings were up we mulched the beds with bedding from our sheep and pigs. This is something we feel strongly about at Country Comfort Farma, and here is why.
It retains moisture
A good layer of mulch dramatically reduces evaporation from the soil surface. In dry conditions like these, that can be the difference between a seedling that thrives and one that stalls or dies back.
It feeds the soil
Sheep and pig bedding is not just straw. It is straw mixed with manure — a slow release of nutrients that breaks down gently over time, feeding the soil biology rather than forcing the plant. No synthetic fertiliser works the way living soil does.
It suppresses w**ds
A mulched bed means far less competition for the young plants. Weeds that would otherwise steal moisture and nutrients in exactly the conditions we are dealing with right now simply cannot establish as easily.
It comes from our own animals
Nothing is wasted here. The bedding that kept our sheep and pigs warm and comfortable over winter goes straight back into the land that feeds them. That is the closed loop that regenerative farming is built on.
A healthy field does not look clean
This is something we want to say clearly, because there is a widely held belief — reinforced by decades of industrial agriculture — that a good field is a clean field. Tilled to perfection. Bare between the rows. Not a w**d or a straw in sight.
That image is not health. That is a warning sign.
Bare soil is exposed soil. It loses moisture rapidly, erodes in wind and rain, and has little to no biological activity happening at the surface. The living web of fungi, bacteria and microorganisms that make soil fertile need organic matter, cover and undisturbed ground to thrive. Strip that away in the name of tidiness and you are left with dirt — not soil.
Our beds look messy by that standard. Straw, manure, organic matter covering the ground between every plant. And that is exactly how it should be. Underneath that so-called mess, the soil is alive, moist and working.
This is old knowledge. Farmers have been doing this for centuries — long before the word mulch became fashionable in gardening circles. We are simply doing what good land stewardship has always looked like.
The favas are in, they are up, and the land is being looked after. That is a good week on the farm.
