Jannei is at three markets these days, but are proud to say we were in Eveleigh Markets first year -winter of 2010 and that year they won an award for the best market in Sydney.

Amazingly – he is still here making amazing cheese.

Jannei has found getting to the markets  harder over the years .  Wages for an 8 hour turnaround set up and drive back- plus market fees and petrol, mean you have to sell a lot of product just to be there.

The marinated cheeses are no exception. Our marketing is about high end food inside a package or jar, no shortcuts, no preservatives , no stale food, no cheap fillers!

Making goat cheese

Quote from website:
“SkillsOne catches up with a couple who have turned their passion for life on the land into an award-winning gourmet goat cheese business.

Neil and Janette Watson decided to follow their dream of owning a farm in the country and opened a goat farm in 1995.

Neil then used the knowledge he learned through a rural science degree to teach himself how to make cheese and dairy products from the goats’ milk. They now have a lucrative gourmet business.”
