Learn About Our Delicious Artisan Cheese
Our Grandfather, John (Hans) Dauwalder, trained as a master cheesemaker in Switzerland, and came to the United States in the 1920’s. He wanted to display his artisan talents in a growing cheese market. Later, after several successful years at the Bunker Hill Cheese Co-op, John decided to return to his hometown in Switzerland. He wanted to further his romance with Lili Mueller. So, the two fell in love and were married in 1933.
In 1948, John and Lili, together with their two children, Peter, our Father and Marguerite, our Aunt, sold the family farm in Switzerland. Then, they were to join John’s brother Crist in the United States. Crist had purchased Bunker Hill Cheese in 1935 and asked John to join him in building the family cheese business.
In 1962, our parents Peter and Nancy, who were married in 1955, acquired Bunker Hill Cheese. Today it is one of the premier cheese retailers east of the Mississippi River. Also, it is one of the most successful wholesale manufacturers serving clients throughout North America.
Our family business continues to be the primary outlet for the local farms in the region. The relationship between the farmers and the Dauwalder family is personal. Also, together we have been committed to continuing on into the 21st century. We also offer several types of delicious cheese! These include raw milk cheese, A2 cheese, and even lactose free cheese! Now you may even buy our cheese online! We offer several great foods, from fudge, salsa, and more!
