Welcome to the Farm
Our farm is located in a beautiful, rural setting, yet we’re just 20
minutes from the fine restaurants, shops and city life of downtown
Bend. |

 |
The Kid Barn
Every spring, the barn is bursting with 200 to 300 baby goats, known as
kids. They’re born weighing about 5 pounds, and they’re curious and
playful from the get-go. |
The Feeding Alley
Twice a day the goats munch on alfalfa, a special treat for them, and
then they head out to pasture. The Feeding Alley is the goats’ dinner
plate, so we work hard to keep it really clean. |

 |
The Milking Herd
Our goats get milked twice a day and each goat produces a total of 3 quarts of milk per day.
|
The Milking Parlor
No, goats aren’t milked by hand anymore! But the personal touch is
important. Because our milking staff knows each goat personally,
they’re able to maximize the milk output using the automatic milking
machines. Regularity, a calm environment and familiarity with each goat
allows the milkers to assure a consistent supply of our most important
ingredient — raw milk. |
The Cheese RoomWhite shoes are always in season in the cheese room.
Pierre is heating a fresh batch of milk destined to become the
legendary Tumalo Tomme.
|
The Cheese Cellar
Our cellar is a cool 48 degrees and 85 percent humidity and houses 500
wheels. Some cheeses, like Redmondo and Tumalo Tomme, are aged in the
cellar for as long as nine months. |
