This is our local cheesemaker, just minutes from the farm. They are part of the same Amish community as our farm.
Alpine Heritage Creamery was established in 2012, following in the footsteps of 10-20 generations of cheesemakers. The ownersâ forefathers were cheesemakers in the Swiss Alps, and thatâs where the name comes from.
They are a small operation. Conveniently, theyâre located underneath our favorite meat processor - Belmont Meats. Theyâre in the basement and have a cheese cave underneath.
Alpine makes cheese the old-fashioned way. They donât use any tricks or additives or extra processing. All of the cheese they make is made with raw grass-fed milk. Itâs a time honored tradition and their specialty.

Stretching across ninety acres of pristine Lancaster County farmland, Beiler Heritage Acres is a true gem. A farm committed to the knowledge of soil and plant species. Omar Beiler operates with the full intention of growing the best possible quality of anything that might be in his fields.
Beiler's Heritage Acres does not spray anything on their fields... except for natural foliar nutrients to help the plants be as healthy as possible (they make it themself with molasses, sugar, and fish fertilizer). They practice crop rotation and are dedicated to improving their soil year after year.
The Beiler's have owned and operated their farm since 1997 years and transitioned to regenerative agriculture in 2013.
The passionate creation of a husband-and-wife team who believe in the life-changing benefits of A2/A2 dairy. Our journey began with a personal struggle that transformed into a mission. Sam, a pediatric nurse practitioner and one half of our founding duo, could not tolerate any dairy. For eight long years, Sam endured the inferior taste of dairy-free alternatives to escape severe stomach discomfort.
The turning point came when Sam, driven by a combination of frustration and hope, came across the digestive benefits of A2/A2 dairy. A glass of A2/A2 milk later proved to be a breakthrough, causing no stomach discomfort, followed by similar experiences with cheese, ice cream, and butter. Sam could not believe it - real dairy would be part of her life again.
But when Sam set out to find A2/A2 mac & cheese, she realized none existed on the market. This absence sparked our idea to create Boss Cow, blending Sam's food passion with the benefits of A2/A2 dairy.
At Boss Cow, our mission is to bring better ingredients back to the foods families already know and love. We make clean-label pantry staples with real A2/A2 grass-fed dairy from local regenerative farms â no seed oils, dyes, preservatives, soy, or junk fillers. We believe dairy should come from real farms, cows raised with care, and farmers we know by name. Thatâs why we use A2/A2 dairy made with the natural A2 beta-casein protein â a gentler kind of dairy that many people find easier to digest and enjoy. Weâre here to raise the standard for everyday food, Because real food should be simple. And families deserve better than the boxed foods they grew up with. One box at a time, weâre bringing real food back to the pantry. Boss Cow Bakery will never compromise on quality:

Creekside Organic Acres gives their goats free access to pasture year round. However, in the hot summer, they usually choose to stay in the barn.

Feed contains barley, oats, peas, alfalfa, and minerals.

Their mission is simple: to make a healthier pasta you can feel good about eating. They use only soy-free, non-GMO eggs and organic turmeric, and their Spelt Noodles are made with organic white spelt flour. Every batch is dried in a custom cabinet built by their jack-of-all-trades Dad, a true family effort from start to finish.

The owners of Gap View Homestead both grew up on an Amish farm in Lancaster County, and during their first 11 years of marriage, owned and operated a dairy farm. Then, around 2013, they started a small family-run farm. In 2018, they purchased a small fermenting/canning business from Oasis at Bird-In-Hand. Now, they use the farm to produce homegrown vegetables for the business. Their focus is on fermented vegetables but they hope to expand to include new healthy products.

They believe it should be easy to live a healthy lifestyle. Thatâs why they work hard to make to make their fresh farm products affordable and accessible.

We are Sam and Miriam Fisher, blessed with four children: James, Hosea, Leila, and William. The children are all homeschooled and enjoy the privilege of growing up on a small farm.
Chickens supply us with wondrous eggs and sheep keep our meadows trimmed. Black Locust trees grow on our creek banks, dandelions cover our yard in spring, and clover blooms like popcorn in summer.

Beginning in 2003, our mother had a dream to create goat-based products. After reading an article about goats, we were compelled to buy more and more goats. Then in 2004, we received a PA raw milk permit to serve within the state of Pennsylvania.
After an apprenticeship to learn the craft of cheese making, our family-owned business began making handcrafted goat cheese in small, artisan batches.
Our family-owned company entices people all over the world to try our artisan cheese products. Our cheeses have a European touch, inspired by Europe with our own identity added to them to satisfy palettes of all types. Some European cheeses are protected, meaning we cannot use them. So we have a lot of fun coming up with our own names.

Named after their picturesque home base location in eastern Lancaster County, Welsh Mountain Apiaries is a locally thriving wild forage beekeeping operation. What began with one beehive as a Wenger family project in 2014, has incrementally grown to currently more than 140 production hives.
To the happy delight of their growing list of discerning customers, they work tirelessly to ensure their honey is free from pesticides and GMO pollen. With great attention to detail, the Wengerâs keep their hives on organic farms, forests and wild meadowsâŚallowing them to harvest and bottle local raw honey that is fresh and unfiltered.
Although it is common amongst large beekeepers, Welsh Mountain does not feed their bees high fructose corn syrup. And they keep their bees healthy by controlling mites without the use of chemicals. While it requires a lot of extra effort, instead of relying on pollination services, they consistently move their hives to locations that maximize wild forage opportunities.

Wild For Salmon began as only an adventurous trip to Alaska in 2002 to do some commercial salmon fishing with a friend. Following our first fishing excursion, we arrived home with 2 coolers of salmon for our friends and family. This is when we quickly realized the uniqueness of the product and the possibilities that lie ahead. We have grown to serve individuals, buying clubs, local farm markets, restaurants, and health food stores.
June and July are busy months on the boat. The fishing season lasts approximately 5-7 weeks. Steve is the skipper of our 32â boat, while Jenn, the first mate, and two other local men are deckhands. While on the boat, we listen to the radio to hear the official fishing periods. As we catch the salmon they are kept in refrigerated holds, making sure the quality is preserved. On average, every 10 hours we offload our fish onto a larger crab boat which takes the fish in for processing. It is quickly filleted, flash frozen, and vacuum sealed to capture the âdirect from the boatâ flavor. After fishing, the salmon is sent back to PA where we sell the salmon at local farm markets and other venues.
