Our story

From little things, big things grow

Dairy farming runs deep in our family, and it's that long line of tradition that has shaped Little Big as it is today.

Where it all began

Erika and Steve Chesworth were both raised on dairy farms - a shared way of life that brought them together and saw them married in 1989.

The couple started out at "Amberley Vale" in the Hunter Valley, raising their young family alongside the herd, before relocating the operation to Dubbo in 2004.

A family affair

Based on the banks of the Macquarie River in the heart of the Central West, Little Big Dairy Co is proudly owned and operated by Steve and Erika Chesworth, in partnership with their son, Campbell Chesworth and their daughter, Emma Elliott.

Together with their team, the family works side by side to produce the best milk, cream, cottage cheese and butter you can buy.

Big things, from a family brand

No two days are the same in a family business like ours, but what stays the same is the care our team puts into every bottle.

That’s what makes our product what it is, and we’re so proud of what we produce.

A little bit of luxury, however you like it

The best cows, the best feed, the best people, and a product that speaks for itself. We believe if you take care of the little things, the big things take care of themselves, and it’s that philosophy that sets us apart on the shelf.
