The Tour
Cedar Grove has worked with local farmers for more than 100 years. On a tour you see cheese made the old-fashioned way, and the guides cover the history of cheesemaking and the economics of small-scale production. You can also see the Living Machine, a greenhouse-based system that cleans the factory's wastewater. Groups are welcome. Cheesemaking happens in the morning, so ask for an early slot.
The Store
Everything Cedar Grove makes is on sale, along with daily specials, cheeses you cannot buy elsewhere and squeaky curds straight from the vat. The shop can ship packages anywhere.
Getting There
Plain is about 35 miles west of Madison and seven miles north of Spring Green. From Highway 23, take County Highway B east for half a mile, then turn left on Mill Road. The factory is on the corner of Valley View Road and Mill Road.
