Welcome

Maplebrook Farm is an artisan creamery in North Bennington, Vermont. We make mozzarella, burrata, feta, and ricotta in small batches, every day of the week, with 100% Vermont milk. What started in 2003 with twenty balls of mozzarella is now sixty-five people, a run of national awards, and — since 2022 — home to Ploughgate Creamery cultured butter.

The old world way

Small-batch care.

Our mozzarella is made the old-world way, in small batches, using house-made curd and milk with a specific fat and protein level — the source of a rich, creamy flavor that keeps winning national awards.

What began with a Boston entrepreneur, a third-generation cheesemaker, and twenty balls of mozzarella is now 65 people making small batches of cheese every single day in North Bennington.

Butter sheets,
built for croissants.

In 2022, Vermont's most celebrated cultured-butter maker joined the Maplebrook family. Now we're rolling that butter into sheets with 88% butterfat — higher than any sheet on the market — made for pastry chefs and bakers who believe lamination deserves better butter.

Rooted here

100% Vermont, no asterisks.

Every drop of milk we use comes from local, sustainably run Vermont family farms — rBGH and rBST free, from cows grazing the Green Mountains. We pasteurize it ourselves, right at the creamery in Bennington.

It's a shorter supply chain than most cheesemakers can claim, and you can taste the difference it makes.
