There are recent changes with open enrollment that impact immigrants and Wisconsin residents that they will cover. LaClare Family Creamery is one of the only 100% domestically produced goat cheese brands in the country\, sourcing their milk exclusively from local dairies. It began in the late 70's when Larry and Clara Hedrick bought a "hobby farm" in the heart of America's dairyland\, and their hobby quickly turned into an obsession. On their self-guided tours\, you can learn about the creamery cheeses\, take a behind-the-scenes look at their cheesemaking process\, and meet the goats onsite. X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:
