Schellach Cheese Farm in Middelburg has 85 dairy cows and processes 100 percent of the milk itself, says Robbie Mesu, one of the owners. “We have been making farmhouse cheese and buttermilk for almost forty years now. And recently also yogurt, custard and chocolate milk. Because the dairy farm we bought that from stopped producing. We started experimenting with our own pasteurizer. With custard and yoghurt. That yielded some great products. Then we also started doing the dairy ourselves. We put up a completely new building, for the farm store as well as the cheese storage with robotic arm.”
