If there’s a more adorable animal than a goat, we’d like to see it! You might argue that an alpaca is cute and we’d be forced to agree. But even the fluffiest, happiest alpaca isn’t going to help create cheese and that’s our second favorite thing! If you also have a special place in your heart reserved for goats (and one for homemade cheese!) we’ve got your next day trip all lined up for you. You’ll be heading to one of the most lovely farms in the state.
Hickory Nut Farm in Lee is one of the most adorable farms we've ever seen. Owned by former architects, Donne-Lee Woods and Phil Tambling, this little farm is a labor of love.
They started with two donkeys, two sheep, 20 chickens and one horse. Soon kids were added. Soon milking goats were added and the rest, as they say, is history!
Each cheese is made right here at the farm and variations in recipe and other uncontrollable factors make every single bath unique. People love the Cuppa Cheeses, which are. You can pick them up at the Stall Store on the farm or at a number of local farmer's markets. They even have an online store.
While we love the cheese and dairy products, it's also fun to visit the farm. They offer visits at different times throughout the year and you can learn about them on their website listed below.
Hickory Nut Farm is open for visits at different times throughout the year. It’s especially fun to help them feed the goats. You’ll just need to get in touch with them in advance to arrange a time. You can learn more about the farm’s story and what they offer by visiting their website. Follow them on Facebook to keep up with farm events and new products for sale. For questions and to set up a time to visit they can be reached on 603-659-6885.
