Sweet Rowen Farmstead
We are a grass-based, family owned and operated dairy farm located in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, about 20 miles south of the Canadian border. We milk a small herd of Vermont Heritage Lineback cattle. Our barn is situated between woodlands and several rich fields where we rotate pasture and grow and cut our own hay.
Sweet Rowen began selling milk in 2011, bottling a small volume each week at a rented facility in Albany, VT. In September of that year, the bottling room was lost in a devastating fire, forcing the farm to reconsider our options. We decided to build our own creamery on our family land, enabling us to bottle all of our milk on-site and sell it locally. The creamery opened in May of 2012 and is now cranking out small batches of creamy, non-homogenized milk and delicious artisan cheeses.
Farmer's Cheese: Similar to cream cheese but without the added cream. This fresh, tangy, spreadable cheese comes in a variety of flavors. This sampler will include three flavors in 8 oz. tubs:
- VT Herb
- Garlic Tomato
- Lightly Salted
