Farm 3

Farm 3 was the prettiest so far in terms of buildings. Pretty red barns, and the cheese kitchen used to be a carriage house. More goats. The co-owner talked about working for a bank in Manhattan and the daydreaming of retiring to a dairy farm. Man was I jealous.

The other owner may have been Canadian, based on his accent and phrasing. He was funny, esp talking about about the "honeymoon pen" and what it was like to cut open the first aged batch of cheese they made....(bowing to whatever deity you believe in and so on).

It was nice to stand in the "cave" where they age cheese for a few minutes because now it's muggy outside.

The cheese they age for two weeks is named after Lilly, the farm's first goat. Awwwwwww.
