Skylands Food TrailA stop on the Skylands Food Cheese Trail: farms that make cheese from their own animals’ milk.

Pete and Marilyn Southway’s Jersey and Guernsey cows are milked in a barn that sits directly above the creamery: the milk travels by tubing from the parlor to the vat downstairs. That is about as short a trip from cow to cheese as you will find in New Jersey.

The specialty is soft farmstead cheese in a dozen flavors (garlic pepper, tomato basil, everything bagel and more), plus flavored cheese curds and glass-bottled cream-line milk.
