We spend countless hours each day making sure our cows at Sweetwater Valley Farms are comfortable and happy so they can produce high quality milk. They are our livelihood and we want to take care of them and make sure they have the best life all the way from the day they are born throughout the whole rest of their lives. We make a wide variety of cheddar based cheeses as well as gouda. We are a farmstead cheese producer which means we are controlling the entire process from cow to consumer starting with what we grow at our farm to feed the cows and then later down the road using their milk on our farm to produce our cheese. Our farm, located between the towns of Philadelphia and Loudon, is in the heart of southeast Tennessee’s dairy-rich Sweetwater Valley. It is known for its agricultural vitality and progress. We are proud to be able to farm in this area. We produce a variety of award winning southern cheeses including basic cheddars, flavored cheddars, gouda, smoked gouda, cheese curds and farmers cheese.

We are a family dairy farm producing farmstead cheese. Sweetwater Valley Farm was part of the revolutionary land granted to General William Ballard Lenoir and was settled in the early 1800’s. It lies in the town of Philadelphia, Tennessee which holds the distinction of being the southernmost town controlled by the Union during the Civil War. At the turn of the twentieth century it became a dairy farm, with the original dairy barn built on the farm in 1917. Several owners spent their time tending the land and raising dairy cows on the farm over the last century. John and Celia Harrison purchased interest in the dairy farm in 1987, and became the sole owners of Sweetwater Valley Farm in 1992. John started producing cheese in 1998 using the milk from his cows. Throughout the early 2000s, both the herd of dairy cows and the cheese operation continued to grow. In 2018, Sweetwater Valley Farm became Tennessee’s first Lely XL Dairy Farm, milking 500 cows with Robotic Technology. Today, Sweetwater Valley Farm is a diversified farming operation that serves as home to over 1,500 dairy cows and multiple beef cows, as well as a source of crop production and farmstead cheese. Our Vision and Mission at Sweetwater Valley Farm is being committed to consistently producing superior agricultural products through dedication to our employees, animal care, and natural resources. We strive to create a sustainable business model through innovation, efficiency, leadership development, and customer satisfaction. Our goal is to provide our customers with an extraordinary cheese experience. More than that, we love to show our customers visiting the farm how the dairy industry feeds the world, and how Sweetwater Valley Farm plays a vital role in local and regional economies. © Copyright 2022.
