Cedar Grove cheesemakers craft 4 million pounds of cheese a year from milk bought from more than 30 Wisconsin farmers who have pledged not to treat their cows with artificial growth hormones. And no animal enzymes or genetically-modified ingredients are used in the cheesemaking process.
Working in concert with nature is an important part of Cedar Grove’s business, which relies on a “Living Machine” to clean wash-water in a beautiful biological way. The company actively promotes recycling and energy use reduction programs.
