Located in a remote part of mountainous Vermont referred to colloquially as the Northeast Kingdom, Jasper Hill Farm is making some of the best cheese in America. This one cow named Pickle, a beautiful light gray cow, heard her name and pranced over like a dog to be petted. It was like The Sound of Music, gentle hills and spring flowers everywhere. “But they were literally prancing, stoked to be eating fresh grass instead of hay in the barn. “I didn’t know cows could prance,” she says. ![]() Pasqually (Doesn't speak or sing, Drums)Ĭhuck E.We sent our deli manager and cheese buyer, Elyse Hoang, to Vermont for a few days of artisanal cheese bliss.ĭo happy cows produce better milk?
