Jones Family Farm

There's something special about artisanal cheese, especially when it's made with care and offers health benefits that conventional products can't match. Jones Family Farm's sheep milk cheese does exactly that. Based in Selwyn, Canterbury, this award-winning cheese is naturally A2, making it perfect for those with digestive sensitivities to cow's milk, while being packed with protein, calcium, and essential vitamins.

When you offer Jones Family Farm cheese in your fundraiser, you're not just selling a product-you're providing a premium, health-conscious option that supporters genuinely appreciate. With $5 profit per four-pack sold and supporters saving $18 off retail price, it's a win-win that makes fundraising feel rewarding for everyone.

Why Premium Cheese Creates Loyal Supporters

• Health Benefits: Naturally A2, high in protein and calcium, and suitable for those sensitive to cow's milk. These health benefits appeal to health-conscious supporters who want quality they can feel good about.
• Award-Winning Quality: Award-winning cheeses that represent craftsmanship and quality. Supporters can purchase with confidence, knowing they're getting premium products.
• Generous Savings: Four-packs retail for $38 but sell for just $20 in fundraisers. That $18 savings creates immediate value that drives purchases.
• Local Pride: Made in Selwyn, Canterbury, with sustainable farming practices. Supporting local businesses resonates with many supporters.
