Watch morning milk from grazing cows become a golden Italian-style wheel in about a day at this Washington dairy, then drive one home.

We’re excited to formally introduce our Farmstead Fontal!

Not to be confused with Fontina, this is a buttery, rich, and mild cheese. It’s younger and less pungent than its Italian cousins and distinctly different from our traditional Fontina, which is aged over 6 months. Pure melt-worthy magic.

Farmstead Fontal is an ideal cooking cheese because that is truly where it shines. Built for melting, it’s now featured at in their seasonal grilled cheese!

Grand Central Bakery is a leading pioneer in the artisan bakery world & we couldn’t be more honored to be featured. We both share a deep commitment to traditional methods and a belief that the Pacific Northwest has so much to offer when it comes to local regional food systems.

We recommend trying it melted into their Sourdough Pan Loaf or Sour Rye Pan Loaf for a true taste of the Northwest

Note: This cheese is currently available exclusively to our culinary partners not available in retail…yet 🤭❤️

We get asked about our Original Scamorza all the time and while we may be biased, it is one of our most awarded cheeses at Ferndale Farmstead.

Delicate, buttery, and rooted in Italian tradition, it melts beautifully and brings a rich, clean finish to any dish.

Great for snacking, even better for cooking. Pizza, pasta, baked dishes… this is where it shines.

Each one is individually made, cut, and hand packed. A true labor of love ❤️
