In this episode Becks has the pleasure of reconnecting with Thomas MacDonald, Chief Operating Officer of Spring Sheep Milk Co - a sheep milk nutrition company taking the goodness of New Zealand sheep milk to the world. Spring Sheep Milk Co. is supplied by milk from around 20,000 milking sheep across the North Island. 

Thomas MacDonald is a third-generation dairy farmer from Gordonton, Waikato, who has found a unique space within the New Zealand Agricultural sector combining our strengths of producing high-quality dairy products with our national expertise of farming sheep. Where best-suited land-use, farm systems expertise, existing infrastructure, sustainable practices and a close connection with consumer combine - that’s where you will find Spring Sheep. 

The New Zealand sheep milking industry as a start-up sector is no stranger to fast-pace of change so Thomas’ insights into how to approach change are invaluable.
