Established in 1961, Renard’s Cheese is a fourth-generation, family-owned and operated cheesemaking business in Door County, Wisconsin. Almost completely surrounded by the fresh waters of Lake Michigan and the Bay of Green Bay, the Door County peninsula is unlike any other place in the world. Rich nutrients in the soil create lush pastures for local dairy cows to graze on. This allows the cows to produce high-quality milk, a key ingredient in the award-winning cheeses that we are known for.

We are fortunate to be surrounded by the beauty of Door County and are mindful of its well-being during the cheesemaking process. Our sustainable practices include:
~ The cream that separates out is transported to a local dairy to produce butter.
~ The whey is sent to a whey processing plant. Some of the end products from the whey are protein snacks, protein drinks, and high-grade animal feed, among others.
~ The water that is generated during the cheesemaking process is delivered back into the environment, enriching the soil for local farmland in a safe and effective way.

The Renard family is committed to handcrafting quality, gourmet cheese in America’s Dairyland. Our selection includes Cheddars, Colby, Farmers, Muenster, Brick, Marble, Monterey Jack, Mozzarella String, Smoked String and over 50 flavor-infused specialty cheeses.
