Wisconsin cheeses boast a heritage of more than 150 years of quality and craftsmanship. During this long and rich history, the art and science of cheesemaking have been balanced with time-honored traditions to develop varieties that meet unsurpassed standards of excellence. Today, Wisconsin produces over 450 different varieties, types and styles of nationally and internationally award-winning cheeses.

Wisconsin 's expertise doesn't stop with our award-winning cheese. Our producers continue to find unique and flavorful ways to use their exceptional milk, and there are also training courses and programs for buttermakers, yogurt makers, ice cream makers and those who bottle milk.

We invite you to meet some of these fine farmstead and dairy artisans and learn more about their products.
