Long Paddock Cheese

Long Paddock Cheese is located in the beautiful township of Castlemaine in Central Victoria. The unique heritage site of the old woollen mill offers a unique abode for our fromagerie, retail outlet, and The Cheese School. 

Our story is crafted by a team of passionate cheese enthusiasts: Ivan & Julie Larcher, Alison Lansley, Ann-Marie Monda, and Carla Meurs. United by a shared vision, we are deeply committed to nurturing and elevating Australia's artisan cheese industry.

Our approach revolves around two fundamental pillars. First, we master the art of cheese craftsmanship to create a delectable range of cheeses and dairy products. Second, we are dedicated to cultivating both novice and experienced cheesemakers,, through an array of beginner and professional cheesemaking classes. Here you'll discover a small-scale dairy room—a dynamic hub serving as both an educational center and a space for crafting small-scale dairy delights.
