A UK hospital has signed a deal with a local organic dairy to supply its patients with organic milk.


Darlington Memorial Hospital in the north east of England has agreed terms with family-run Acorn Dairy, to supply 5000 pints of organic milk per week. As the dairy is only three miles from the hospital, the low transport costs offset the higher price payable for organic products to a greater extent.
