But bring your cooler so you can load up with the reason you are really here: That Amazing Cheese! And actually, they sell souvenir lunchbox coolers so that'll save you. There are a number of cheese varieties from which to choose, and you can't go wrong. The museum is actually larger than the cheese shop itself, which is essentially some cheeseboard accessories and a deli case of cheeses. Just the right amount of goods and goodies to buy en route to your next stop on the Vermont Cheese Trail.

The idea that this cheese place was opened to recreate the original cheese process manufactured…read morehere is really interesting. It's both a way to learn about old-fashioned manufacturing techniques and also, a good place to get food. Win-win. Downstairs they make the cheese and customers can watch (that's my understanding, they weren't making cheese when I went) and upstairs is the old equipment for contrast and a small exhibit for additional information. Though the equipment is modern, the process is the same (along with any additional safety/food inspections). It's a great living example of bringing the past to life and promoting making local food as they also use nearby dairy supply and create in house. The cheese is on the more expensive side compared to what you can get in the grocery store, but they had several different Vermont Cheddar flavors. They had samples out, and the smoked cheddar won us over. We also got some beef jerky to pair with it, and the cashier gave us a plate and bamboo knife to eat right outside at a picnic table. I would definitely recommend a metal knife in the situation to get through the wax covering, but the wax is nothing a little sawing can't break through. The cheese is fresh and creamy with that great layer of smoky flavor. It's an upscale cheese and very flavorful. If I was able to take more to go, I would love to try a lot more of the flavors. I'm not cheese expert, but if you want that authentic Vermont cheddar, it doesn't get more real and delicious than this.

Very good cheese all around! There is no doubt that this creamery makes some fantastic goat cheese…read more This is especially true due to there being very few goat cheese options in my city of Pittsburgh beyond the standard supermarket brand. This cheese doesn't taste like foodservice. It takes like genuinely delicious artisan cheese. As far as I know, this particular location on Yelp is not open to the public. Maybe it was at one point, but newer reviews point to it being closed now. So I probably wouldn't recommend making the drive here just for some free samples, especially considering the cheese isn't expensive anyway. I was able to acquire some from a local Aldi for just a few dollars ($3-4, I believe). I was quite blown away. The cheese is so creamy and all around perfect. No grittiness, perfectly pure flavor that truly makes it feel like an upscale experience. This particular cheese is a dip, but I ate it straight from the container because that's how good it is. Plus, it's also quite light! 45 calories for 2 tablespoons, and around 250 for the entire container! I will say, though, it's tough to get your hands on this product sometimes. All in all, I highly recommend giving the Vermont Creamery's cheeses a try. The goat cheese dip is fantastic, and I enjoyed it straight out of the container. I'm sure their other products are just as delicious, and they make for a great gift, appetizer, or snack.

I have been enamored with Vermont creamery since I worked at Whole Foods in New England, so this was at the top of my list to visit. What you're actually visiting is their corporate offices. Inside they look a little like a fancy, corporate barn. The staff is SO welcoming. When you get there, although you can't do a tour, you can taste your way thru their award winning cheeses. I forget the front desk woman's name but she was THE NICEST. Upon walking in, she asks if we want to try some cheese. Well, of course we did! She walks on back to the kitchen and a few minutes later emerges with something magnificent. A wooden cheese board in the shape of the state of Vermont featuring: - 3 kinds of goat cheese: pepper jelly, honey, and regular - cultured butter: yes, we ate this by the spoonful alone and have zero regrets. - creme fraiche with vanilla - their award winning Bonn bouche- an ash ripened goat cheese that is stinky and delish! All of this was on the house! Then you can purchase anything you'd like but at cost which is AMAZING! We brought home a ton of goat cheese from here and our friends and family were extremely pleased. Loved visiting Vermont Creamery

This past trip was to lay my grandmother to rest so everything we did felt bittersweet, as though we don't know if we'd ever be coming back. Dakin Farm was as wonderful as ever. From the assortment of cheeses and honey, to being able to see the bees working away as shown in the video I uploaded, this will always be a special spot. Their honey sticks of various flavors are so, so good. If you don't buy some of their honey then you're truly missing out. It can get pretty busy in there but the staff is always kind. If you're a fan of fresh fudge, I recommend trying some of that too! We'll always have a soft spot for Dakin Farm.

Weather got a little hariy getting there with the slushy roads, but we made it! It's pretty remote location with no street lights, so if driving in the dark look for the signs to get there and trust your GPS. There's a large parking lot across from the entrance to the little store/shop. The shop is actually the owners old family home I belive. We arrived pretty much at closing time, but we were still welcomed warmly. We got a cheese & maple syrup tasting which was yum and informative, and the staff member that did it was really nice, I forgot her name, but see photo below. One of the cheeses has won a cheese competition, very cool. We also got to meet the owner, but she was busy getting Christmas orders together. I perused all of the cheeses I wanted and settled on 4. We got to try 2 out of the 4 from the cheese sampling. The nice lady that checked me out even gave me some nice to-go samples as well. The smoked cheese was my fav, and the sage. But I enjoyed them all. I was able to easily fly home to TX with them due to the cold weather of the season. After the tasting, we got to peruse the store. They have so much other stuff to buy in additon to cheese and maple, tons of knick-knacks and gifts and merch. We didn't get to explore the farm after since it was pitch black when we left, too bad. Enjoy!
