The April Therapy Box - A Celebration of Australia

The Riverine Blue has been especially popular this month and is now sold out. Unfortunately, we’re unable to secure additional stock. We will be substituting it with Nimbin Valley Blue Goat + a halloumi.

This month’s box takes us into the green hills of South Gippsland, on Gunaikurnai Country, where a respect for milk, place and tradition has made Berry's Creek Cheese one of the country’s most trusted and award-winning names.

Founded in the early 1990s by Barry Charlton and Cheryl Collis, Berry’s Creek began as a small farmstead operation focused on sheep milk cheeses. Over time, they expanded into cow and buffalo milk, always guided by a simple idea: make cheese that reflects the land, the animals, and the season. Their Riverine Blue is a perfect expression of that approach, and this month, it takes centre stage.

This is the first time we’ve featured a buffalo milk cheese in the Therapy Box. It’s rich in both fat and protein and brings a natural depth and a silky texture that sets it apart from cow’s milk cheeses.

The paste is dense and creamy, with a gentle sweetness that softens the blue veining. You get depth, a touch of spice, and a long, savoury finish that keeps drawing you back for another piece.

April’s Therapy Box also includes:

• Wensleydale | Maffra Cheese Company
  A traditional English-style Wensleydale with a fresh, crumbly texture and a clean, yoghurt-like tang. Light, slightly citrusy and quietly refreshing, it brings a gentle lift to richer cheeses and pairs beautifully with fruit pastes and preserves.
  
• Blackall Gold Washed Rind | Woombye Cheese Company
  Washed rind with a soft, yielding texture and a gentle, earthy aroma that opens up beautifully as it warms.
• Black Cow | Nimbin Valley Dairy
  A creamy, approachable cow’s milk cheese with a smooth texture and a rounded, comforting finish.
• Green Olives in Brine | Mount Zero Olives
  Firm, savoury olives that bring a clean, saline contrast to the richness of the cheeses.
• Natural Sourdough Lavosh Crackers | Silver Tongue Foods
  Light, crisp, and neutral, designed to let the cheeses do the talking.

And as always, every box helps support the small-batch makers, farms, and regional communities that keep Australian cheese moving forward, one wheel at a time.

The April Grazing Box — A Regional Harvest for Sharing

• Milk Chocolate Coated Macadamias | Rainforest Foods 🍫🌰
   Australian macadamias, gently roasted and coated in smooth milk chocolate for a rich, buttery crunch. Perfect alongside a soft cheese or as a little something sweet to finish the board. And with Easter still in the air, it feels right to have a little chocolate on the table.
• Pickled Baby Figs in Syrup | On The Side 🍈
   We’ve brought this one back again after so many good comments. Whole baby figs preserved in a lightly spiced syrup, soft and luscious with a delicate sweetness. There’s a gentle tang running through them that keeps everything balanced, making them a natural partner for blues, washed rinds and richer cheeses.
• Quince Paste | Ugly Duck Fine Foods 🧀🍯
   Slow-cooked quince paste with a deep amber colour and a firm, sliceable texture. Sweet, fragrant and just slightly tart, it’s a classic for a reason. Pair it with aged cheeses or something crumbly to let that sweet-savoury contrast do its thing.

Together these additions bring sweetness, richness and a little sparkle to the board, turning a simple cheese plate into a full grazing experience.
