Meet The Maker: Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese
Get to know incredible cheesemakers and dairies this summer at the ‘Meet the Maker’ series at the Guelph Farmers’ Market. A collaboration between SweetCheeses! and 10C, this special summer series will bring Ontario dairies to the market to showcase their products, chat about cheesemaking with the public and provide tasty samples
Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese is a small artisan cheese plant nestled within the rolling hills of Gunn’s Hill Rd., in Oxford County, Ontario. The cheeses produced at Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese are truly unique although you can taste the Swiss influence from techniques and recipes Shep learned while making cheese in the town of Handeck, in the Swiss Alps. Today, there are two full time cheese makers and a team of staff that work diligently to produce some of Canada’s finest award winning cheeses. Owners Shep Ysselstein and Colleen Bator are proud of the little thriving business that is now seeing their cheeses in over 300 locations across Ontario! Find them here.
