Boring is a New Zealand oat milk company making oat milk in New Zealand with New Zealand oats.
Boring founder Morgan Maw knows her oats. She’s been working with them day in, day out since 2013. While oats don’t have much to say at the office Christmas party, their sustainable profile and low impact on the land make up for it. To help increase the demand for this glorious grain and in turn, contribute to a more diversified farming landscape, Morgan set about the task of making a homegrown oat milk five years ago.
Turns out, it’s not that easy to make oat milk in New Zealand. Some even said it was impossible. Well, not quite. At a time when supporting local has become even more important, Boring is pleased to be making a truly New Zealand oat milk, made with South Island oats.
Landeater is happy to have our taonga incorporated with Boring Oat Milk.
A product that is locally made and environmentally friendly.
