Celebrating American Raw Milk Cheese Producers

The Oldways Board of Directors is pleased to recognize and celebrate the  contributions to the tradition of raw milk cheesemaking in the US. As champions of traditional foods, Oldways and The Oldways Cheese Coalition believe that raw milk cheeses represent an important part of our agriculture and culinary legacy.We are grateful for the stewardship of this craft and for the care, knowledge and passion that these honorees bring to the cheese they produce. Through their craftsmanship and commitment, they help to preserve a time-honored practice that enriches our food culture and the diversity of American specialty cheese.

Raw milk cheeses express a unique sense of place reflecting landscapes, farms, animals and the cheesemaker’s skills that bring cheeses to life.

The  commitment and work of the following cheesemakers  play an essential role in sustaining a rich heritage for future generations. We are proud to recognize these achievements and celebrate the contributions to the continued success and vitality of American raw milk cheese.

With sincere appreciation,

–Oldways & The Oldways Cheese Coalition
