The Story
Jasper Hill Farm is owned and operated by brothers Andy and Mateo Kehler, founded in 2003 in a little corner of Vermont known as the Northeast Kingdom, where the Kehler's spent their summers as children. Jasper Hill has enjoyed significant successes with its line of cheeses, such as multiple ACS award wins, including two Best In Shows. The farm recently acquired a second creamery space at the Vermont Food Venture Center, a non-profit facility incubating local food businesses. Along with herd management and cheesemaking, another integral facet of the company is the Cellars at Jasper Hill, a state-of-the-art affinage facility, where both their cheeses and those of other regional creameries are matured.
