Our culinary team has also been busy making soups & charcuterie for your culinary adventures. Check out the newly updated website, or visit us soon. You'll be glad you did! | | | Cheese forecast:
Amram: A small, round delight named for the music icon, David Amram. David is a dear friend, and got Jonathan started on his cheese making career when we were neighbors in Putnam Valley, NY! Perfectly ripened to soft edge with delightful semi-soft center!
Cider washed Amram: (sold out) A lovely little round delight named for David Amram, and washed in Ironbound Hard Cider during the ripening process. Our current Amrams are beautifully firm and dry, perfect for grating! Silver Medal winner at the World Farmstead Cheese Awards in 2018, Lyon France!
Baudolino: Earthy, gooey, everything you're dreaming of. Amazing with apples and pears!
Baudolino cured in Cabernet franc wine must: We bury our lovely Baudolino cheeses in grape must, which is the skins of grapes that have been pressed for wine! The cheese gets a beautiful fudgy, gooey texture, and the flavor is delicately laced with wine aroma. Excellent with wine, also excellent with ales and ciders!
Drumm: Autumn edition is in! Smooth, bright, yielding. Outstanding flavor journey that pairs with everything delicious, or stands beautifully on its own.
Endgame: Wildly funky, runny texture. You have been warned.
Forêt, for Ray: 1/2 pound round that has been washed in a lovely sour ale made at Descendants Brewery in Milford. This cheese is so smooth & tasty! Delightful with fruit, fresh green salads, and breads, of course!
Grana: A blend of our firmer cheeses, grated for convenience. Use as you would a Reggiano, but a bit moister, with a lovely intense flavor that's perfect on pasta and salads!
Jean Louis: Bold, bright, complex and strong, 4-6 months old! Always delightful on a cheese board, or sprinkled in soups, salads, or tarts.
We also continue to carry the following cheeses made by our Amish colleagues in Lancaster, PA:
Cave-Aged Cheddar: a truly exceptional cheddar, sweet, mellow. Currently 24 months old. Go ahead, use it in mac & cheese...a little goes a long way.
Frolic: Alpine style, mild but not simpleminded, great in sandwiches or on its own, melts well. Try it in french onion soup! Cheddar Grand Reserve: Made in 2019, this cheddar has lovely crystallization!
These two need to be pre-ordered for Tucker Square:
Amish Schmearkase: Dense, semi-soft texture, nutty and buttery with the lightest hint of stink. Amish Blue: Subtle and complex cultures, rich milk flavor. This is the blue that folks who don't like blue will like!
Available for shipment or pre-order here, or come out and shop at the farm. | | | Whey-fed Pork Whey is the by-product of our cheesemaking, and we gather the whey daily to feed it to a group of heritage breed pigs each season!
Our freezer is chock full of beautiful chops, roasts, cutlets, sausages, bacon, and countless other options that will raise your expectations forever!
100% grass-fed Beef We are currently nearly out of our own beef. Lucky for us, we are proudly selling ground beef from our friends at Lima Family Farm!
Pastured, suckled Veal We are well stocked, but need to update the online inventory. Please feel free to email your needs to nina@cowsoutside.com.
Our pastured, suckled veal, was raised by our cows on the pasture, drinking milk, grazing, and getting plenty of fresh air and sunshine.
Harvested just a short ride away, we are proud to bring you meat that we feel is ethical, regenerative, and, of course, delicious. | | | Lower UPS rates!
We were able to negotiate a lower rate with our dependable shipper, UPS! Since we are still a very small business, we are unfortunately unable to absorb the shipping costs altogether, but we hope this reduction will make our packages more approachable, especially if you order samplers rather than a la carte items.
Our new rates are still based on package price, as we find that it's a good reflection of our costs.

Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia
