| Variety:
Our artisan cheeses: along with the original Gouda, we also make Edam, a low-fat Gouda which is made with skim milk; Leyden (with caraway seeds), two spiced Goudas - Country Dill, Onion 'n Garlic (a spiced Gouda), Lamont Cheddar - all of which are certified organic.
We also offer grass-fed meats: beef, pork, chicken, lamb, turkey, and eggs from pastured chickens. |

Family Farm:
Our cheese is made on our family farm by our own family. We have only a few part-time employees who are not related to the family, making it a true farm family. In this way also, we can ensure that our small cheese-making business and all buildings are kept clean and safe. |
Pasture based farming:
Our cows spend 99% of their lives outside, keeping them cleaner and contributing to good health. When cows are grazing outside, they are harvesting their own feed and spreading their own manure, the way God intended. From their birth to their death, our cows feed on fresh organic grass the majority of the year (because we live in Michigan). They are supplemented nutritionally with small amounts of organic grain and minerals. Their milk and meat is free of production hormones, steroids, and antibiotics. |

"You [LORD Jesus] care for the land and water it; You enrich it abundantly. The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so You have ordained it. You drench its furrows and level its ridges; You soften it with showers and bless its crops. You crown the year with Your bounty, and Your carts overflow with abundance. The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness. The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain; they shout for joy and sing." Psalm 65:9-13 |
