Goat Cheese Products
Rainbeau Ridge's 2009 goat cheese season is in full swing!
Thank you to all of our customers who are enjoying the season along with us. This year, Lisa is producing some additional cheese offerings along with the products you've come to love.
Rainbeau Ridge hand-ladled goat cheese is made practically in your backyard.
Nestled in a corner of Bedford Hills, New York, Rainbeau Ridge is home to a herd of Alpine goats, all of whom were born on the farm. Starting with two milking does in 2002, Lisa Schwartz (the farm’s creator and cheesemaker) has learned to milk goats, assist her does with kidding and make wonderfully fresh goat cheese.
Trained in France by cheesemaker, Sylvianne, and goat herdsman husband, Yves, Lisa continues to explore the craft and looks forward to offering several varieties during the season.
Made fresh daily, the cheese is simple, not goaty. Sometimes ash-coated and sometimes aged, other variations include herb-coated, li’l bloom, peppered, and cranberry walnut to name a few.
You can enjoy Rainbeau Ridge farmstead goat cheese in your home by purchasing the cheese at local retail outlets or you can enjoy the goat cheese as part of your meal at fine restaurants. Where to Buy.
