"Clover Creek Cheese Cellar is the business that allows the Rice family to sustain their small family farm. Started in 2005, the business now markets their farmstead cheese throughout Pennsylvania and the surrounding states.
In the decade since they opened, the Rices have continued to raise their herd of Milking Shorthorns, Jerseys, Ayrshires, and crossbred cows on pasture. They bottle some of their grass-fed raw milk to sell on the farm and in several stores and farmers markets throughout Pennsylvania.
They turn the rest of their milk into farmstead artisan cheeses. As the years pass, they are continually tweaking their process to make every batch of cheese better than the last so that you can taste the farm fresh flavor from the greener side of the fence."

"It started, as most good stories do, with a goat. And before you know it, there was another goat. And then another.
Then, with all those goats, it quickly became about milk. And then, happily cheese. We became students of cheese and met wonderful, generous cheesemakers across the country. The more we learned, the more we wanted to learn.
That’s when it became clear that we’d found a calling. And began work on our creamery. By the time the creamery was completed, we had a happy herd of goats and some cheery neighboring cows all delighted to provide what would become the fruits of our labors. Goat Rodeo Cheeses.
From fresh chèvre to interesting aged cheeses, we’re creating some of the region’s finest cheeses, from goat milk, cow milk, and a delicious blend of both."

"Starting with the purchase of one hundred acres of land in Evans City, PA, Marburger Farm Dairy has been continuously operating in one form or another since 1842. A German immigrant by the name of George Marburger, Sr. first used the land for raising draft horses until his son, Adam, transitioned the 100-acre parcel to dairy production.
After about twelve years, Adam and his wife, Georgia, moved the Marburger Farm Dairy operation to its current location. Since then, over three generations of Marburgers have been operating Marburger Farm Dairy successfully. Our business was featured in the "Food Tech" series telecast by the History Channel.
Marburger Farm Dairy's commitment to you is quality, service, and value. We strive to maintain the highest standard of food safety in the US. We ensure our products are all pure dairy products. We have been awarded Safe Food Handlers Certification Level 3."

"The Burkett family has been producing pure maple syrup since 2001. The first time we made maple syrup was in a homemade stainless steel pan over an open fire. It started with 20 maple trees on my parent’s farm and has grown to 30 acres of hard maple trees, a full scale sugar house, over 10,000 gallons of storage space for the fresh sap and over 5 miles of plastic tubing.
Each spring, three generations of Burketts (Joseph, his father Ed, and our oldest son Jude) work together in tapping, harvesting, and boiling the maple sap.
Our desire has been to cultivate a local renewable resource in such a way as to provide for our family and give back what we are able to our local community."

Our oils come from impeccably credentialed, Award-Winning producers worldwide and are tested to meet or exceed U.S. and International Standards.
Many of our flavored olive oils are produced using the Agrumato method, which is the process of simultaneously crushing select fruit, herbs, garlic, peppers, etc. with the olives to produce exceptionally flavored olive oils. It is also important to know that our flavor infused olive oils are flavored naturally by each artisan producer and the base olive oils (prior to flavoring) are always 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oils, therefore providing the same, heart-healthy, cancer inhibiting benefits."

"Our family has been farming the same land continuously since 1867. We proudly pasture our cows, and always have.
Our 150 girls, all with names, graze native meadows from early March to late November and through winter their diet mainly consists of organic grass/hay raised here on the farm. For that matter all of the cows feed is raised right here. We also have a closed herd, which means we do not buy cows to maintain our numbers. We usually sell some young heifers off each year, since our cows live three times the average age of an American dairy cow and we just don't have the acreage for all that are born here. By raising all our own feed and having a closed herd we are able to maintain very high quality milk."
