Overview

With the help of our certified cheesemaker, you will learn the old and the new ways of the old practice known as cheese making.

You will learn the basics and will be able to enjoy your own self-made cheese at the end. You will be able to observe the entire process on your own.

During this two to three hour workshop you'll learn how to craft your own Dutch farmers' cheese. You will be welcomed in the workshop room where you will hear more about the history and current production of farmers' cheese (Boerenkaas). Then you will make cheese together with one of our cheesemakers.

When the cheeses are under the press, you will be given a tour of the cheese farm and clog factory. During this tour, you can taste all types of cheese, try a glass of fruit wine and taste typical Dutch biscuits.

After the tour, the cheeses can be removed from the press. These very young cheeses will then receive a small treatment before you can take them home.

Food and drinks can be purchased in the restaurant.

So much fun and something unique for me to do with my 14 year old. Guide was very friendly. We got to package our cheese for the flight home where we will finish the process! We also did the shoe painting and had lunch there. Was a good day.
