Farms & Orchards

Prairie Fruits Farm & Creamery is Illinois’ first farmstead cheese making facility, founded in 2004.

Visit this off the beaten path farm and learn about their cheese-making process and their “Animal Welfare Approved” Goat Dairy. Taste their delicious, award winning varieties of goat cheese and sample their amazing goat milk gelato. Their farm store "The Real Stand" features cheeses, charcuterie, crackers, and accompaniments, as well as locally crafted gift items. You can even enjoy a cheese & charcuterie board with a glass of wine or beer under the farm's spacious pavilion. Visit with the goats and take in the tranquility of their prairie landscape. The farm offers seasonal events, tours, tastings and farm dinners. This is a working goat dairy farm and farmstead creamery, so the farm is open to visitors mostly during weekends. Check their website for the latest hours and farm offerings.
