Myrtleford Butter Factory on the move

Mother-and-daughter team Bronwyn and Naomi Ingleton have outgrown the Myrtleford Butter Factory building and have put it on the market. When the pair moved into the factory, built in 1906, it took some trial and error before they delivered their first retail box of butter on December 14, 2010. They now produce one tonne of butter a week and have picked up awards and plaudits along the way. The 75-square-metre floor space is clearly not big enough. Naomi says she and new business partner David Taylor have found a new location – a whopping 1000 square metres – but won't reveal its location yet. She is sad to move on. "We have very mixed emotions, but we're equally excited about the new premises." Their current digs on the Great Alpine Road would be perfect for a baker, pastry chef, cheesemaker or brewer, she says.
