Our pots do a good job at keeping our products fresh and getting them A to B, but what happens to them after the yogurt's all gone? Oliver Bradbury is from one of the farms that supplies us with Jersey milk, and he has the perfect answer - this superb yogurt pot tower.

Do you have a creative way to reuse our pots? Could you build a bigger tower? Send us your pictures and we'll feature them here.

Keep your eyes peeled for our new Yorkshire Cream Cheese pots hitting the shelves from June. 

Longley Farm dairy products have been made in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire since 1948. We are proud of our Yorkshire heritage, so when it came to refreshing our packaging, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to emphasise our Yorkshire roots. 

Our soft cheese was one of our finest products, but not always recognised by that name, as our customers were often looking for ‘Cream Cheese’.  Our new Yorkshire Cream Cheese has the same delicious recipe as our soft cheese - it’s still delicious on crackers, or in your favourite cheesecake – but we think the name now better reflects the great product inside.

We’d love to hear your thoughts about our new packaging, so let us know what you think here.

It's that time of year again! Applications are now open for another round of grants from the Longley Farm Farm Fund, and we'd love to hear from you if you have a project or group that needs some funding.

The fund is one of twelve managed by One Community, the Kirklees Community Foundation. The Foundation was established in 2010 to encourage local giving, and to act as an independent source of funding for local voluntary activities. It manages charitable funds on behalf of individuals and companies from across Kirklees.

Who can apply?

The Longley Farm Fund aims to support artistic, cultural and voluntary activities within the Graveship of Holme, so if you have a project that needs funding and your group is located in the Upper Holme Valley (Holmfirth, Austonley, Upperthong, Holme, Cartworth, Wooldale, Hepworth, Fulstone or Netherthong) we would love to hear from you.

How do I apply?

Applications are now online, so to apply, click here or visit One Community website www.one-community.org.uk

You should check the eligibility criteria on the website before making an application and if you need any help completing the form, or if you have any questions, please call the Foundation Office on 01484 468397

Applications will remain open until Wednesday 20th September 2016. Funding applications will then be considered on merit by a panel, and decisions will be announced before Christmas.

Don't meet the criteria?

If you have a great project but are based somewhere else in Kirklees, or you are worried your project doesn't fit the Longley Farm Fund, have a look on the One Community website. They have 12 different funds with a variety of aims, so it may be you can get funding elsewhere.
