So, come out and enjoy a beautiful day at the farmers market!!!

Celebrity DairyCelebrity Dairy goat cheese is an award-winning, artisan cheese made from pasteurized milk of goats raised on Celebrity Dairy’s 300-acre farm in Siler City. This cheese is celebrated for its creamy, mild, slightly tangy profile and rich texture, created using French farmstead techniques to emphasize freshness, subtlety, and complexity. Celebrity Dairy produces a diverse range of plain and flavored chèvre (fresh goat cheese) logs and spreads, each with distinct flavors developed from pure, high-quality goat milk. The cheeses are made in small batches with a focus on sustainability, freshness, and natural flavor, paired well with local produce and suitable for use on cheese boards, in salads, baked dishes, or simply on bread. Celebrity Dairy’s mold-ripened cheeses are notable for developing a soft, brie-like rind and a more complex taste over time. In addition to cheese, Celebrity Dairy produces a flavorful line of goat's milk fudge and gelato.
