WESTMINSTER — AlpineGlo Farm in North Westminster will be hosting a grand-opening celebration for its new USDA-certified cheese-making facility on Saturday, May 14, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
AlpineGloFarm cheeses are handcrafted in small batches and produced on-site with their own goats' milk. The cheese lineup includes fresh chèvre - plain or cranberry-walnut; their Neufchâtel cheese spread - plain or garlic-dill; and marinated Feta.
Cheese will be available for sampling as well as for purchase.
According to a news release, visitors may tour the farm and have a chance to play with this year's baby alpine dairy goats, feed them a bottle, give treats to the mother goats, visit baby chicks, and more. This is “a great opportunity to get up close and personal with the goats, visit the farmer, and ask questions about the farm's animals and products,” the release says.
The farm's store is open daily during daylight hours from April through November. Products can also be purchased at the Ludlow Farmers' Market on Friday evenings and the West River Farmers' Market in Londonderry on Saturdays throughout the summer.
