## About

Farmhouse Artisan Cheese is a specialty cheese shop in Kerr Village, Oakville, Ontario. We carry a carefully curated selection of artisan and farmhouse cheeses from local Canadian producers and international cheesemakers. Our counter changes with the seasons and reflects what is at its best — whether that is a buttery Quebec triple cream in spring or an aged Alpine cheese in winter.

In addition to cheese, we carry fine charcuterie, specialty grocery items, preserves, crackers, and honeys. We build custom cheese and charcuterie boards for personal entertaining, events, and corporate occasions, and curate gift boxes for any budget.

We publish a monthly newsletter called The Farmhouse Gazette and maintain a blog (Tasting Notes) covering cheese education, seasonal recipes, and food culture.
