Tillamook Cheese Factory Tour

During our recent trip to the Oregon Coast, we joined some of the one million people who tour the Tillamook Cheese Factory each year. If you grew up in the Pacific Northwest, you probably grew up eating Tillamook grilled cheese sandwiches and ice cream; the farmer-owned co-op has been producing dairy products, starting with cheddar cheese, since 1909. Plentiful rain and a temperate coastal climate provide the perfect growing conditions for plenty of sweet green grass . . . ideal for dairy cattle. Today Tillamook County boasts more cows than people, with more than 90 farm families here (some are fourth-generation).
