There is a farm in Georgia that is serving up some of the best cheese this state has ever seen. It’s not just any ol’ cheese either—it’s thick wheels of fine, handcrafted cheese that are made from soft-ripened cow’s milk straight from the farm. If you’re looking to find some of the best cheesemakers in the American South then look no further, because this 140-acre farm has them right here.
Sweet Grass Dairy in Thomasville, Georgia is revolutionizing the cheese game for the state.

This 140-acre family owned and operated farm in Southern Georgia features a bevy of award winning cheeses made from the milk of some truly happy Jersey cows.

Every batch of cheese churned out from Sweet Grass Dairy is of the highest quality—with experience that has been gained since 2000, when they started making cheese from barn free, grass fed cow’s milk.

You’re probably wondering what makes the cheese from Sweet Grass Dairy so unique…which is a question we all wonder before we sink our teeth into the Pimento or Lil’ Moo.

While there is a lot that goes into every handcrafted batch of cheese, it is the milk that is produced from the rotationally grazing cows that makes this cheese what it is.

These cows not only have 140-acres to do with what they please, but they get to move around 12 hours each and every day barn-free, with fresh cool water pumping from the Floridian aquifer.

Happy cows are only at the foundation of this epic cheese—it’s also the fact that tons of time and attention go into each batch.

Take the Pimento for instance—a modern take on a traditional recipe that uses the Thomasville Tomme cheese, raw milk, Duke’s Mayo, piquillo peppers and pimeton from Spain.

No wonder it won 1st place in 2015 from The American Cheese Society.
