The Creamery

We are now shipping cheeses!  Please call or email to place your order.

Turner Farm Creamery was licensed in 2010.  Cheesemaker and dairy manager Jamien Shields processes the milk from our herd of Oberhasli goats into several varieties of fresh and aged cheeses, available seasonally from May through December. 

We believe that good milk starts with healthy, well-fed animals.  Our goats are on fresh pasture daily, eating a variety of native grasses and enjoying the breeze off Penobscot Bay.  We supplement their diet with sprouted grains, which are rich in vitamins, nutrients and antioxidants.  All this said, quality of life and quality of feed lead to quality milk.  Our milk has a sweetness and a freshness that transfers through to our cheeses. 

 

Cheeses we produce:

  • Fresh chevre
  • Olive-oil marinated chevre
  • Sparkplug – an aged, ash-ripened goat cheese
  • Whitecap – an award-winning aged, soft-ripened goat cheese, with dulse (a local seaweed)
