About Us
Welcome to Barwon Valley Smallgoods, where passion meets craftsmanship. Owned and operated by artisan smallgoods guru Damien Batties, our story is rooted in a love for quality and tradition.
Damien’s journey began with a butchery apprenticeship at a young age. His interest in smallgoods was ignited while working at a gourmet butcher shop in South Melbourne, where he mastered the art of smallgoods making. Driven by this newfound passion, Damien ventured into his own business, embracing the craft of creating smoked products. Through experimentation and countless trial-and-error recipes, he has achieved exciting, award-winning results.
