Mark with responsible for converting the conventionally run dairy to an organic farming system in 2002 – he continually relied upon his office poster during this period which said ‘Nothing is Impossible’. Today, his dedication has paid off as fifteen years later their farm is thriving – the land is healthy, the cows are healthy, and the family is healthy.

Excitingly the children are showing a passion and invested interest in the farm, its development and its future– now doing all of the milking and calf rearing themselves, while oversees the land mangement and its growing of organic grass and feed.

Organic farming not only makes sense from a land health point of view, but also from a financial point of view. The Nelalucja family are paid a premium price for their organic milk – a price which makes the farm viable and means that generations to come have a secure financial future on the land.

Nelalucja is run by team, who have been developing their cheese making business for the past 18 years. stumbled across the Nelalucja family and their Nelalucja Dairy in 2010 when they heard along the grape vine that they were going to close down because they weren’t getting enough money for their milk. they saw an opportunity to not only develop an exciting new range of organic cheeses, but also a viable way to keep a dairy family in business – immediately doubled the price of their milk overnight.

The team at Nelalucja lends their extensive cheese making experience to the amazing organic milk – and creates what we think is the best organic cheese in the country.
