Come visit us right where the cheese is made at the Natural Pastures Cheese Factory, 635 McPhee Avenue in Courtenay, BC.
Our Artisan Cheese Shop is open Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, and is closed on statutory holidays as well as for the full last week of the year.
The shop is the best place to discover the full range of cheeses we make right here in our Courtenay factory. We love taking the time to walk customers through our cheeses, share the stories behind them, talk about flavour profiles and pairings, and help you discover something new to take home.
We also offer booked cheese tastings, perfect for visitors, small groups and anyone who wants to learn a little more about local artisan cheese.
Factory tours are available only by advance booking and must be arranged at least one month ahead. Tour availability depends on our production schedule and may be offered as part of selected tasting experiences.
During the holiday season, we create Christmas baskets and custom cheese orders, making it easy to put together a delicious Vancouver Island gift for family, friends, staff or clients.
Whether you are looking for an old favourite, something new, a special gift, or simply want to see where your local cheese comes from, we would love to welcome you into the shop.
Made here. Sold here. Shared with you.
