Volunteer-run society and museum housed in the Old Butter Factory of Kingston. The history of the Butter Factory dates back to 1906 when a public meeting of over 150 dairy farmers was held to discuss the building of a co-operative dairy company. The factory was built in Kingston by Waugh and Josephson and the manufacture of butter commenced on May 13, 1907. The factory produced butter which won awards locally and overseas. The factory finally ceased production in 1983.
