smith’s country cheese - winchendon, ma
Dave Smith began making cheese from his dairy farm in 1986, modeling his company after the Dutch farmstead co-op model brought to the Unites States by the University of Minnesota. Jake and Allie Catlin took over the farm in 2014, relying on Dave’s experience and wisdom.
The Smiths taught the Catlins how to make cheese and care for the cows on weekends for over a year before the sale was official. Together with Jake’s brother Mike and wife Leah, the Catlin family has grown by 200 Holsteins, 43 acres, and more wheels of cheese than a connoisseur can dream of. It’s hard work but it’s meaningful work.
Awards: International (5 times) and Big E (8 times).
