COVID-19 UPDATE

We would like to assure all customers, regular and new, that our online shop remains open for business and that at present, all our cheeses remain available.

We are a very small business and in being so,  we believe we are able to quickly adapt to the challenges brought about by the current Covid-19 virus situation.

Having only 2 of us in the dairy makes  adhering to the strict conduct of hygiene and due diligence during cheese making and the preparation and packaging of orders much easier.  The fewer links in the process the safer the outcome.

Our farmers are continuing to milk their animals and deliver to us.  We will in turn continue to make it into our award winning cheeses for as long as we are able to.

 

The Cheese Shed started in 2006 and we quickly became aware of the Somerset Cheese Company. Their wonderful Fosseway Fleece ewes’ milk cheese became a staple of ours and has been ever since: we often recommend it and our customers are never disappointed! Over time we’ve got to know their other cheeses and now stock most of them. In every case the cheeses are distinctive and really high quality.

Pennard Vale deserves its awards, the buffalo milk cheeses are quite simply unique and even their cheddar, Six Spires, manages to stick out from the crowd. At The Cheese Shed we aim to support the best of small-scale Westcountry artisan cheese making, where quality and character come first: Anita & Phil’s dairy is the perfect example of the sort of thing we’re looking for.”
