Self Guided Tours
Through a self-guided tour, explore our Visitor Center and learn about LaClare Family Creamery and Saxon Creamery cheeses and our cheesemaking operations.
Monday-Friday from 10 am - 4 pm take a behind-the-scenes look at our cheesemaking process, from the viewing windows. We make over 15 different cheeses on-site!
Head outside in the spring and summer to visit the goat silo, a fun new way to meet our goats. Next, make your way over to the barn to see the 700 doelings we have onsite...you may see a donkey or llama in the pens too! We also have some resident chickens in the barn.
Goats are onsite during the late spring and summer months. Baby goats are available to see in our viewing room. Check out our events page for events featuring baby goats.
