Green Vale Farm Creamery in Coopersville

All of Green Vale’s cheese is handmade in their state-inspected plant right on the farm.

The cows are milked in the morning, and that same milk is turned into cheese the same day, with curds and blocks packaged the next day and put straight on the shelf.

They offer a long list of flavored curds like garlic dill, smoky bacon, ranch, steakhouse, honey BBQ, jalapeño nacho, and buffalo, along with cheese blocks like pepper jack, tomato basil, green olive, and smoky bacon, plus fresh mozzarella. Everything is hormone- and antibiotic-free and comes from their own herd.

Here’s what you’ll typically find at Green Vale Farm Creamery:

Handmade cheese curds, cheese blocks, fresh mozzarella, hormone- and antibiotic-free beef steaks, pork, chicken, beef sticks, summer sausage, jerky, bacon, eggs, ice cream, rotating homemade baked goods, pumpkins (fall), farm puzzles and merchandise, cows, calves, pigs, chickens, turkeys on-site, century-old green barns.
