small batch cheese and yogurt from happy sheep & goats
Three Charm Farm is a farmstead creamery located in Alfred, Maine. We create small handmade batches of seasonal fresh cheese and yogurt with the help of our lovingly raised goats and sheep.
As a licensed dairy, we produce fresh yogurt and cheeses from a combination of goat and sheep milk that is heat treated (not pasteurized). Our animals have 24/7 access to both shelter and outdoor spaces. We practice rotational grazing/browse from late spring through late fall.
Our sheep and goats are fed a custom mix of grains, minerals, kelp, herbs, and high quality hay. We produce our cheese and yogurt from mid-May through November 1st, and we love our animals all year long.
flavor notes that change with the seasons
We work within our seasonal constraints and by doing so, the flavors and textures of our products evolve depending on the time of lactation, what’s growing in the pastures, and how our micro- and macro-environments adjust to rainfall and climate. This combination creates unique and amazing flavor notes that change throughout the season.
