Ellen has embarked on a unique venture and created a nice niche for herself in the sheep dairy market. These sheep are not what you may be used to in the Australian landscape, like Merino. Ellen is building a flock mixed with East Friesian and Awassi breeds (from the middle east) renowned for their milking ability, calm nature and consistent output.
The end product being a mix of cheeses, yoghurts and milk are being snapped up at the Adelaide Farmers Market,
Wayville Showgrounds and sought after by many restaurants. It’s all made on farm in her small but growing production facility out the back of Lyndoch.
