Barber's Farmhouse Cheese - food sponsor

The Barber family have been making cheddar cheese for longer than anyone else worldwide. Barber is now the oldest surviving cheddar-makers in the world.

​

To make the best cheese, we need the best West Country milk. Their dairy cows graze the lush pastures of Somerset and Dorset to produce rich, creamy milk. They also work with many of our neighbouring farmers who supply us with additional milk and we’re proud to support our local farming community in this way.

​

Being the sole guardians of the country’s last remaining traditional cheese starter cultures — the ‘friendly’ bacteria that start the cheese making process and contribute to the final texture, aroma and taste. Only by using these cultures can we be sure that we’re making true West Country cheddar.
