A Cheesery Day
Ann, Sandra and Sandy, look very happy after sampling the cheeses and locally grown produce.
2022 August Outing
A group of ladies from Carindale VIEW visited Awassi Cheesery, a purpose-built Lockyer Valley sheep dairy and boutique cheesery that is surrounded by avocado groves.
We were very lucky to see some of the lambs that had arrived early, and sampled a selection of cheeses that are produced on site. We also enjoyed a lunch of frittatas made with sheep feta, along with local salad produce.
Many of the ladies bought cheeses and avocadoes to enjoy at home.
Congratulations Ladies
