2007 Cheese Tour

Members of the Upper Hudson Farmstead & Artisanal Cheesemakers are extending an invitation to the public to see how cheese is made. On September 15 and 16 five cheesemakers will open their operations to the public. Come watch the cheesemaking process, meet the cheesemakers and some of the animals that make the raw resource needed for cheese, milk.

This is a self-drive tour, you can stop at every cheese makers, or pick one or two that you are interested. A map will be added to this site when it becomes available. We also will have a description of each cheesemaker, a little history of their operation and details on their special cheeses.

There are several other special events planned for the weekend. Stay tuned as plans are finalized.

Any questions can be posted to this blog.

I am organizing a large group to come on the cheese tour. I was wondering whether there would be an admission fee and what size group the farms can handle?

The map shows a farm near the Granvile / VT border, however the Times Union article does not mention this farm. The TU mentions the Gillis Farm in Greenwich, and that is not on the map. Is there a brochure that can be posted or will it be available at one of the farms?
