Sun to Cheese Tour

Where does the story of our delicious farmstead cheddar cheese begin? Join us on a behind-the-scenes tour to uncover the sun to cheese story at Shelburne Farms!

Watch the cheesemakers in our Farm Barn cheesemaking facility craft our milk into cheddar. Enjoy a guided tasting of our cheddars, then head to the dairy to meet our Brown Swiss cows and discover how we care for our landscape, pastures, and herd.

Tours run daily except Thursdays, 2–4:00PM through October 19.

Accessibility & Details: This tour will meet at the Farm Store & Welcome Center. You'll be transported around our campus in an open-air wagon with steps to board. Given that this tour includes a cheese tasting and travel around the farm, we highly encourage you to bring a water bottle along with you during your visit.

If you need accommodations to participate as fully as possible, please contact us to discuss the possibilities two weeks in advance of the program.

Our tours are designed for adults (18+). Each participant, including children of any age, requires a ticket. If you are visiting with children, we recommend participating in the hands-on activities in the Children's Farmyard.

This tour is weather permitting, and participants will be refunded for cancellation due to inclement weather. All ticket availability is listed in real time.
