Our Story
The Lovely Cow Shed is a catering and event business located on our family farm in Thornley. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I lost my closest best friend (and employer) and therefore my job as well, which took its toll mentally and financially.
One night I created a delicious meat and cheese grazing table for my family and posted it on my Facebook page. I received numerous comments and private messages from customers I knew from my work in the café, asking if my food was available to order, that got me thinking.
I now operate from a commercial kitchen on the farm and have a beautiful adjoining workshop.
My husband’s favourite dairy cow ‘Lovely’ was 20 years old at the time so naming my new business after her was a fitting tribute and The Lovely Cow Shed was founded in April 2021.
