Did You Know? Gibbsville Was Once Surrounded by Cheese Factories!

Here's a little piece of local history you might not know!

Back in the 1800s, Sheboygan County was at the heart of Wisconsin's booming dairy industry. But cheesemaking looked a lot different back then.

Before modern refrigeration, fresh milk couldn't sit around for long. Farmers needed to get their milk processed into cheese quickly before it spoiled. That meant small cheese factories started popping up throughout the countryside, often just a short distance from the farms supplying them.

In fact, the Town of Lima, where Gibbsville is located, was once home to an incredible 17 cheese factories!

That's right, 17 cheese factories in one township!!!

Over the years, as technology improved and the dairy industry changed, many of those small cheese factories disappeared. But one familiar name is still going strong: Gibbsville Cheese.

It's pretty amazing to think that something that started out of necessity more than a century ago helped shape the cheesemaking heritage our community is still known for today.

So the next time you pick up a block of Gibbsville Cheese, remember, you're getting more than just great Wisconsin cheese. You're supporting a piece of local history that's still going strong.

Now we're curious! Does anyone remember any of the other cheese factories that used to operate around Gibbsville or Sheboygan County? We'd love to hear your stories and memories!

After 2pm! Fresh, squeaky, straight out of the vat curd!!

🧀 One of Sheboygan County’s Best-Kept Cheese Secrets Might Be Right Under Your Nose🧀

If you’ve driven through the Sheboygan Falls/Gibbsville area, there’s a good chance you’ve passed one of Wisconsin’s true local gems without realizing just how much is inside.
Gibbsville Cheese Co Inc is more than just another place to grab a block of cheese. It’s a family-run Wisconsin cheese company with generations of cheesemaking history, a working factory, and a retail store packed with the kind of products that remind you why Wisconsin takes cheese so seriously.

Located at W2663 County Road OO in Sheboygan Falls, the store sits just a little off the beaten path ...which means plenty of people in the area may still have never stopped in! Yikes!!! That is a tragic cheese situation!

Gibbsville Cheese has built its reputation on classic Wisconsin favorites including Cheddar, Colby, Monterey Jack, Two-Tone cheese, string cheese, cheese spreads, cheese curds, Italian cheeses, gift boxes and plenty more. Their factory store carries a broad selection, and much of the cheese is produced right there using local ingredients!

One of the biggest reasons to stop in? Fresh cheese curds. Gibbsville’s advertises fresh curds at the store every other Wednesday after 2 PM !! So if you’re someone who believes a cheese curd should still squeak, you may want to put that on the calendar.

There’s also something special about buying cheese from a place that actually has deep roots in the community. Gibbsville Cheese traces its history back to 1933, and the Van Tatenhove family has operated the business for more than 65 years! The factory and store were even rebuilt after a fire destroyed them in 1945.

That history is part of what makes a stop here different from grabbing cheese off a grocery-store shelf. This is the kind of place where locals come back again and again, travelers make a point of stopping, and you can walk out with everything from everyday snacking cheese to something for a party, gift basket or Wisconsin-themed gift.

And people clearly like what they find. The store currently carries a 4.8-star rating from nearly 500 reviews, which is pretty impressive for a little local cheese shop tucked into rural Sheboygan County.
