Say Cheese: A Creamy Adventure Through Marin
|
 |
Craving a cheese-tasting adventure with a side of rolling hills and local flavor? Marin County invites you to indulge in the ultimate artisan cheese trail, where every stop offers a slice of creamy perfection and a story worth savoring.
Begin at the historic Marin French Cheese Company, crafting cheeses since 1865. Sample their award-winning Triple Crème Brie and picnic lakeside under the oaks. The charming deli and shop are packed with everything you need to build the cheeseboard of your dreams—and yes, they serve Straus soft serve.

Then head to Nicasio Valley Cheese Company, rooted in Swiss traditions and Marin soil. Founded by the Lafranchi family, this creamery blends heritage with organic, farm-fresh milk to create cheeses like their signature Foggy Morning. Their shop is open daily and brimming with Alpine charm (and samples!).

Don’t miss a visit to Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company, where The Fork offers cheese tastings, farm-to-table brunches, and special events like their “Cheese & Greet” anniversary bash. The Marketplace is your go-to for curated snacks, local wines, and take-home wedges of their famous Original Blue.
Tie it all together with the California Cheese Trail—an interactive map that guides you to hidden creameries, cheese-centric events, and tasting rooms. Pick one up at any creamery or online to chart your cheesy course through Marin and beyond.

For those wanting the full VIP experience, Food & Farm Tours offers exclusive cheese adventures that include farm visits, gourmet picnics, and one-on-one time with the animals (think goat selfies). Their five-hour “Cheese Lover’s Tour” is a sensory journey into Marin’s dairy-rich culture.
With fresh air, fine cheese, and plenty of local charm, Marin County delivers a farm-to-fork escape you’ll want to revisit again and again. Plan your cheesy getaway at visitmarin.org and get ready to say “cheese”—often.
