With so many different regions that make up our state and so many different kinds of New Yorkers, sometimes it can be difficult to find something that we can all agree on. If there’s one thing that will always bring people together though, it’s cheese. Set within the Finger Lakes where you’re surrounded by rolling hills of green, there’s a picturesque farm right off of State Route 96 that has its own cheese shop and tasting room that will leave you in awe.
Tucked between Seneca and Cayuga Lakes in the small town of Waterloo, Muranda Cheese Company sits on a 150-acre farm.
A family-owned and operated business, before Muranda Cheese Company came about in 2007, this property was simply a well-known farm that gained attention after one of their Holsteins' set the world record for milk production and held the title for 13 years!
Showcasing the high quality of their popular cow milk, the Muranda Cheese Company finally came about when they began making delicious cheeses and never looked back.
You'll be mesmerized by all of the twinkling lights and stunning wooden beams, the most wonderful setting to enjoy some cheese tastings in the Finger Lakes.
Open every day of the week from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Muranda Cheese Company offers cheese tastings that will take your taste buds on a sweet rollercoaster of flavors.
The gift shop not only includes goods and merchandise from Muranda Cheese Company but also features things like fresh juices, grape seed oil, honey, mustard, pottery, apparel and more that all come from local crafters and shops in the Finger Lakes region!
With a beautiful deck full of rocking chairs for you to hang out on and look out at the farm and cows that helped make all the tasty cheese you tried during your visit, come see why Muranda Cheese Company will be your new favorite getaway.
Throughout the year, the Muranda Cheese Company hosts a variety of events that will further inspire you to pay this farm a visit. The next upcoming event on the farm's calendar is their Open Barn - where from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. there will be beer, cider, wine, cheese, a food truck and live music available to anyone who comes to enjoy this day out on the farm.
