Strawberry Chèvre Bites

A Treat for Any Time of Day

As a cheesecake lover, I initially tried this recipe with sweetened cream cheese inside berries, but the simplicity of it offers a lot of room for play.

chevre berriesAll you need is some of our fresh chèvre, sweet strawberries and nuts or graham cracker crumbs. While the subtle tartness of our chèvre compliments berries nicely on its own, you could also try adding a smidge of your preferred sweetener.

Preparation:

      • Slice off the tops of your washed berries. You can also carve out the white flesh inside the berry with a slim paring knife to create more room for filling. 
      • Spoon on our chèvre, adding more to hollowed berries.
      • Gently press the exposed chèvre onto a plate of graham cracker crumbs, slivered almonds or some other crushed nut.
      • ENJOY!

This treat takes mere minutes to prepare and, I’ve found, about as long to devour with friends, family and party guests.

A note about open houses: Please wear closed-toe footwear you can dip into a shallow sanitation bath, and be prepared to wash your hands to help keep the animals healthy. Also, know that we gladly welcome all those interested in learning about the farm, but appreciate your efforts in bringing a group with a manageable adult to child ratio.

 

Cheese Shop Open for Business

Seize the Cheese!

Our on-site cheese shop will be open to the public for samples and shopping every Sunday starting May 1 from 11:00 a.m. to 3:oo p.m. Request entry at the front gate and buzz the farm by dialing 033. Please see our website for directions. No tours will be available during this time.

We love to have our customers and community see where we make their favorite cheeses. However, as a working farm it can be difficult to accommodate guests during our busy season. Cheese shop doors will remain open from Spring through Fall during the aforementioned time.  If you would like to tour the farm, we offer an open house once monthly – please see our website for event specifics, or sign up for our newsletter.
