Summer is here!
The milk our cows produce after months of eating grass imparts extraordinary flavor to late-summer cheeses, which are great with our homemade chutneys and marmalades!

Getting ready to harvest - Copan 2012
People at the San Rafael village are getting ready for this years harvesting. Picking the coffee is a family work, mom, dad and kids are there, even the dogs get to be around. Picking the beans is a social operation, people get to talk, gossip and some even find love.
Long live the Royal Blue
Tell us about your first taste of King Rene's Royal Blue Cheese
We are celebrating the sucess of this cheese that was named after Don Rene (the king of San Rafael).
Farmstead means...
We make our fresh, ripened, and aged cheeses by hand, right here where we live, using only the milk of our own herd. This is a way of life in which the land, the animals, and the cheese manage us. Fortune (or the lack of it) has given us a sense of who we are in relation to a place and the wildness around us, respect for the animals that demand and give us so much, and for the exacting craft of cheese making.
