E<\/span>ligo is a long, narrow, spring-fed lake between Greensboro and Craftsbury in Vermont\u2019s Northeast Kingdom. Its namesake cheese was a first for Jasper Hill Farm\u2014a washed-rind brick made with local cow\u2019s and goat\u2019s milk\u2014yet it is not the first of the creamery\u2019s cheeses named for a nearby lake. \u201cThe lives of so many people in our community revolve around these bodies of water,\u201d says Mateo Kehler<\/a>, who owns Jasper Hill Farm<\/a> in Greensboro with his brother, Andy. Eligo, along with Lake Willoughby and Little Hosmer Pond \u201care loved and cherished places.\u201d So, too, are their namesake cheeses, which exemplify the Kehlers\u2019 mission to connect their entire enterprise to the landscape around them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe saw an opportunity with a mixed-milk cheese to come up with a different format than anything else we do,\u201d says Kehler. Buttery and smooth with a hint of funk, Eligo<\/a> is an ideal entry level washed-rind and an excellent melter. It is now one of three mixed-milk cheeses Jasper Hill makes in partnership with Ryan Andrus and Annie Rowden, formerly farmers at Cypress Grove in California who moved to Vermont in 2019 and began milking 400 goats at Bridgman Hill Farm in Hardwick. Bridgman Blue is a raw, natural-rind blue, and Highlander is a raclette-style cheese. All three are produced in limited quantities and are designed to be sold at cut-to-order shops.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe weren\u2019t looking to get into the goat cheese business, but Ryan and Annie are the picture-perfect profile of the kind of people that we\u2019re looking to attract to keep our landscape working and for adding character and dimension to our community,\u201d says Kehler. \u201cAndy and I bought the farm, and they brought the capital and the knowledge. Cheese is a byproduct of the other work around here of regenerating agriculture and sustaining the landscape and the people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
