Australian Raw Milk Cheese

raw-milc-cheesesThis issue is of vital importance to Slow Food Ballarat... it is Slow Food Australia's first national and public campaign based around the production of, and access to, good, clean and fair food. This campaign epitomises what Slow Food stands for - access to local, quality, artisan foods that are good, clean and fair. Slow Food members and supporters must defend and extend this right to access and choice.

Raw milk products are available throughout Europe, Canada, the United States, and shortly to be produced in New Zealand. Australian producers are prevented by archaic regulations from making raw milk products.

To this end we are campaigning for:

  • The opening of regulations to allow for the production and consumption of raw milk cheese and associated products in Australia
  • Labelling laws that clearly identify products containing raw milk
  • Testing procedures to ensure product safety that are affordable to small
    producers
