Desa Cattle (Sabah) Sdn Bhd


Shame to say, this is my first time to visit the local milk farm but...
Proud to say finally I went there!

 

The local milk farm is located at the foothill of the Mount Kinabalu. At the Mesilau Plateau, Kundasang, Ranau. You will be able to see the entrance and a big signboard on the left.

Desa Cattle (Sabah) Sdn Bhd is open for visitors every day from 0800hrs to 1700hrs.
The entry fees are as follows:
RM3.00 (Adult)
RM2.00 (Student and Children)


This time, we drove again to the destination. Along the way to the farm is kind of steep. So might as well you need to be careful when you want to drive there. In addition, you may find the flies are quite annoying. The flies actually followed our car as we are driving to the main building! Kind of scary though. Well, because it’s a farm. So, bear with it.

We reached Desa Cattle Milk Farm about 2.30pm and we have been told that the milking time will be at 3pm. So as we waited, we saw the on-going process of packing the milk into boxes. The excitement is getting into our mood. Well, after everything done, all the packets of milk will be sent to sell. Friendly enough, the workers who are behind the window wave at us while we were taking pictures.





Other than that, we get to try the milk but of course you have to purchase it. There are two flavours which was the basic taste, plain milk and chocolate milk. Both are tasty and you should try it when you go there because it is freshly made on the spot! (Plus, it is cheaper than the supermarkets)

 Price List:
1LT Plain Milk RM4.00
½ LT Plain Milk RM2.50
1LT Chocolate Milk RM4.40
½ LT Chocolate Milk RM2.70
250ML Goat Milk RM4.70

Along waiting for 3pm, we took some pictures of the location and the cattle. It is very impressing that the cattle actually know how to take turns and well behave to get their food. 


The one and only thing that I am hoping is that the milk farm should gain our knowledge other than just to see the cattle and the packaging process. They should have showed us how they process the milk. Well, it’s just an idea.
 
Guess I might be going back to the milk farm.
Why? It is because we didn’t get to take pictures at the HUGE stone which the company had drawn cattle with the company name on it. Yea, it was raining that Thursday. Plus, we didn’t get to take a close up picture with the cattle which is a waste.


See you again moo moo!

  2. Hi Diana. Thank you for your wonderful comment. It means a lot to me! Yes, we hope to introduce more Sabah tourist spots to local and international locals. Please stay tune and support us always and share our blog to your friends as well.

    Second picture we wish to take picture like in NZ. But it seems like lack of something still. Hope to improve more in my photography. We love landscape pictures!
