#22: Jack Bignell and James Green, Bream Creek Dairy (Southern Tasmania)

From humble beginnings in the 70’s with a small her of just 12 milking cows, Bream Creek Dairy has gone from strength to strength.
Being one of the only remaining dairies in the area, the Bignell family now has a herd of 800 strong Holstein Friesian cows.

But as with all farming, it has it’s challenges and the need to diversify the family business led them to cheese making and we could not be more impressed with what they are producing and I’m sure I can say the same of those who have enjoyed some the recent cheese boxes.

We had the opportunity to sit down with Jack Bignell and James Green to discuss the evolution of Bream Creek Dairy and what makes that part of Tassie so special.

I’m not sure about you but by the end of this conversation I was looking at flights to Tasmania.

It really is a special place.

So let's get into it!
