Welcome to Emerald Valley
Artisan Cheeses

          When my husband Alan and I got married in the summer of 1998 we had no idea what an adventure we were about to experience. What we did know is that we were a couple of farm kids who wanted to continue living the farm lifestyle. We brought with us a heritage rich in the traditional farm family values. So we took those values and our passion for beautiful cows and started our life’s journey. From a hobby of one or two cows to a blossoming herd our “family” has expanded.

          Now from our expanding “family” to yours we are proud to present Emerald Valley Artisan Cheese. We craft our offerings with all natural, whole, raw milk, no added hormones, no food coloring or preservatives. Traditional, handcrafted with love, not mass produced.
