Sweet Home Farm

Home

Sweet Home Farm is a working family dairy established in Baldwin County, Alabama in 1985. Our herd of Guernsey cows has access to fresh pasture grasses nearly year-round, supplemented with regionally grown grain. Using a variety of sustainable agriculture practices permits us to control quality every step of the way as our cows transform grass into milk, and we convert that milk into cheese. We use no herbicides, pesticides or growth hormones on the farm. We handcraft a wide variety of cheeses, all made from fresh cows' milk, enzymes and salt, and aged for a minimum of 60 days. Farmstead cheese reflects the particular soil, climate and herbage of each season. We celebrate these seasonal variations in the cheese and recognize them as the hallmark of unique regionally-produced food.
