Batch Farm Cheesemakers Ltd.

Batch Farm Cheesemakers Ltd. We make quality cheddar cheese and squeaky cheese curds for the well known Canadian dish . The dairy is located a mile down the road at Hembridge.

Batch Farm Cheesemakers Ltd is situated in an idyllic setting on the Pennard Ridge with views of Glastonbury Tor and the Mendips beyond. In 1940, at the age of 22, John Gould came to Batch Farm where he ran the farm and which has since been taken over by Fred Gould, his son whilst his daughter Jean focused on developing the Cheesemaking side of this family business. As a result Traditional handmad

e farmhouse cheddar cheese has been made on the farm over the past 50 years. To this day, Batch Farm Cheesemakers remains a family concern and is traditionally handmade on the farm using milk from their own 150 Frisian dairy herd. Fred Gould runs the farm and his sister, Jean, the cheese making business. The cows drink the whey that is left over from the cheese-making process which gives them a lovely coat. This consequently results in a healthy cow; a healthy cow produces better milk which in turn makes better cheese. Batch Farm Cheesemakers Ltd. cheese is made from their own unique recipe which has been handed down over the generations and is matured at set temperature conditions for up two years to give it its unique flavour. Batch Farm's Traditional Farmhouse Cheddar has a distinctive flavour – strong but smooth with a hint of nutty woodiness which comes from the aging process. Our Cheddar Cheese Curd is the closest you can get in the UK to the Canadian version of the product. We were also awarded the best Cheese Curd producers in the UK 2019 and believe we still are to this day.
