Amazing air bnb on site! Cheese is made on site. Best I've ever tasted. Owners and employees are amazing. And cows!!!
Awesome place, an icon for South Central KY. Some of the best cheese you could ask for. Go visit, you wont be sorry!
Their cheese is the best! They offer samples, and are super friendly! After tasting 5 different cheeses, I ended up only buying one (the blue cheese), just because I had several packages of cheese at home already, but as soon as those are gone, I will be back. They also offer gift baskets and shipping! Oh, and you can go into the Barn and watch as the cows are milked!
About the farm
Kenny's Farmhouse Cheese is a farmstead cheesemaker in Austin, Kentucky making cheddars, Gouda and European style cheeses from its own closed dairy herd on a 350 acre family farm.
Kenny's Farmhouse Cheese makes farmstead cheese on a 350 acre family farm in Austin, Kentucky, from the milk of its own closed crossbred herd of American and European Holstein, Australian Red, Brown Swiss and Jersey cows. Kenny oversees both the dairy and the creamery with its aging caves, matching the milk to the cheeses, and since the barn was rebuilt in 2016 the cows have been milked by a robotic milking centre they visit whenever they choose. The herd is bred and raised on the farm from birth, and the cows are said to live twice as long as their breed averages.
The range runs from cheddars, Gouda, Colby and Monterey Jack to European styles, curds and fromage blanc, sold from the farm's cheese shop, by mail order and in stores around Kentucky. Visitors are welcome on scheduled production days. The cows graze pasture most of the time with alfalfa hay, corn silage and a grain supplement, there is no rBST, and antibiotics are used only when an animal's life is at risk.
