Grandvewe Cheeses |
Grandvewe Cheeses is Tasmania's premier farmhouse dairy experience, producing hand crafted cheeses.
Grandvewe Cheesery sits overlooking the ocean on 40 acres of peaceful, idyllic land in southern Tasmania's Birchs Bay. We have stunning views, incredible wildlife and our soil sucks.
The climate we experience is usually cool, dry and not at all typically suited to dairy. We have little to no top soil and what we do have is heavy with compacted clay, highly infertile and doesn't hold moisture well. Even if it did, most of our rain hits in the cooler months, which isn't great for growing grass. Basically, we'd be bonkers to try to farm cows on this land, but it's a perfect fit for dairy sheep.
Wait... you can milk a sheep?!
Don't worry, we get asked this question every day. Not only can you milk a sheep, but the milk is also incredibly good for you. It's a complete protein, full of amino acids and cholesterol-lowering mono-unsaturated fats, and also the only milk that contains Vitamin C. Take that, OJ. Its high solids content makes it ideal for sheep cheese and a whole heap of other dairy products like yoghurt and ice cream, as well as a range of soaps and skincare products. So
cheese from sheep
- absolutely!
