We made a charcuterie board to enjoy while watching the Great British Bake Off. Since we're in Vermont we started with some Vermont cheeses. Three from Blue Ledge Farms here in Salisbury! Riley's 2x4 (Riley was their first herding dog and 2x4 refers to the cheese being a goat/cow milk mix. Goats have 2 teats and Cows have 4 teats 🙂). Moosalamoo is a creamy mild, cow cheese. Lake's Edge is a goat, ash-ripened cheese.
We added some locally produced hard salami and a baguette from Red Hen Bakery in Middlesex, Vermont - A great stop for lunch if you find yourself driving between Montpelier and Burlington on the interstate. The fourth cheese is Harbison from Jasper Hill Farms. One of our favorites that is on the menu at our favorite restaurant 😋 Harbison is readily available these days at Whole Foods among other places.
Since three of the cheeses were from a farm in Salisbury we thought a visit was in order.
They have a cute little farmstand on the farm.
Open all summer. Its self serve. You can pay by putting cash in a lock box or Venmo.
Nicely merchandised fridge and a few other items to complement their cheeses.
Some jams, nuts, dried meats, etcetera plus some cute mugs, t-shirts, the usual. Fun stop at a cool, local business.
