We’re Jan Virkler and Jeff Van Arsdale. Jan grew up on Cedar Hedge Farm when it was a cow dairy run by her parents. The farm has been in her family since 1916. In 2017, Cedar Hedge Farm became a NYS Ag & Markets licensed dairy goat farm and creamery.

In 2018 we received the Dairy of Distinction Award and were accepted into the NYS Ag & Markets Grown and Certified Program for animal welfare and dairy product production. We are members of Lewis County Chamber of Commerce & Adirondack Harvest.com; supporting local agriculture and a Farm 2 Table lifestyle.

“We are committed to raising happy dairy goats,
making healthy farm-based products,
and managing the land to its natural potential.”
