A Truly Local Process at Goodwood Estate
At the Goodwood Estate, we believe in making our cheese as fresh and local as it gets. Our full cheese making process is done right here on the home farm, from animal to product, ensuring it is the freshest and most sustainable it can be.
Our strong dairy herd of one hundred and seventy, is lovingly cared for on our home farm, located just half a mile from our farm shop; making it one of the few farm shops that resides on its own farm. Each day, our cows are milked by hand, producing the highest quality milk for our cheese. Once the milk is extracted, it’s immediately transported a matter of yards to our on-site cheese-making facility, where the magic happens.
Each cheese we create is processed with care, with slightly different methods depending on the type of cheese we’re making. Whether we’re producing creamy, soft cheeses or firmer, aged varieties, the entire process occurs right here, just down the road from where you buy it.
This unique approach not only makes our cheese incredibly local, but it also supports sustainability. By keeping everything close to home – from milking the cows to processing and selling the cheese – we reduce transportation emissions and maintain a lower carbon footprint. Plus, it means our customers get the freshest, most flavorful cheese possible, crafted with care and attention every step of the way.
It’s a simple, honest process: local, fresh and sustainable cheese that tastes as good as it feels to support. Visit us at Goodwood Home Farm Shop and experience the taste of cheese that’s truly made from scratch.
