GREENVILLE, IL – A decades-old dairy farm in Greenville, Illinois has transitioned to the artisan cheese business.
John Marcoot grew up milking cows on this farm. Years ago, John and his wife, Linda, decided they either needed to go big or get out of business. It was a tough time for small and medium-size dairy operations.
Years later, two of their daughters, Amy and Beth, came home and helped their parents launch a cheese-making operation. Marcoot Jersey Creamery now produces 23 artisan cheeses in their state-of-the-art kitchen.
