Milk & Cheese

A small herd, milked twice a day in the barn — early morning and late afternoon, both on the schedule if you want to watch. Most of it goes to the creamery next door, where the fresh cheeses are ready in a day or two and the aged wheels sit on the racks for months before anyone cuts one.

At the Smokehouse

The buttermilk is what's left after churning, and it does two jobs here: the ranch on the table and the biscuits under everything else. Both are better for it than the versions made with milk, which is the entire reason the churn is still running.

At the Greenhouse

The panini is built on whatever's come out of the beds that week — grilled and layered with an aged wheel from the creamery, which melts slowly enough to hold the vegetables together instead of running out the sides. The bread is the only part that arrives by truck.

At The Boathouse

The chowder is built on milk from the morning, which is why it's made in one pot each day and stops when it's gone. Bay from the herb beds goes in at the start and comes back out before service.
