About us
Meredith Dairy is an on-farm enterprise, milking sheep and goats year-round to make specialty cheeses and yoghurts. Our products are sold throughout Australia and exported around the world. Up until 1990 farming at Meredith focused on beef, prime lamb and wool production. When the reserve price for wool was discontinued in the 1990s, the sheep industry collapsed. To stay viable it was necessary to search for alternative farming systems, in particular, options that involved value-adding primary produce and which offered a sustainable income, irrespective of global commodity prices. The owners, Sandy & Julie Cameron extensively researched animal husbandry, sheep and goat milk production and cheesemaking techniques. Two years later the Meredith Dairy factory was built on the farm. The farming activities now concentrate on supply of inputs for the dairy animals including growing grains and fodder. Sandy, a qualified Veterinarian who received his doctorate in philosophy in 1985, has focused his research in sheep & goat reproduction, particularly in year-round production. Ongoing research and development enable continual improvement to farming systems, final products and sustainability

Meredith Dairy is excited to announce the launch of Meredith Farm Produce, a new sustainable food company specialising in premium Dairy Capretto goat meat for chefs and home cooks. Based in Meredith, Victoria, our family-owned business is committed to ethical farming practices and sustainability in every step of the process. Meredith Dairy began as a small family venture with a simple dream: raising a family on the farm. Over the past thirty-four years, it has evolved into a mission to create a sustainable farming system that is both productive and gentle on the environment. By processing on-farm, we discovered we could enhance the quality of our food and retain valuable resources, benefiting our animals, community, and the environment. We’re now expanding into on-farm meat processing, managing our male goats ethically and sustainably. We’re also experimenting with a circular economy - growing trees, recycling water, generating heat and power, and using natural fertilisers. Though the journey has had its challenges, we remain committed to learning and growing with the support of a global community that shares our values. Visit our website: https://lnkd.in/g_ikvYSk
