Natural Pastures Cheese Company In 2001, our family’s British Columbia Heritage Dairy Farm came to a crossroads and, determined both to preserve our values and to diversify our offerings, we founded Natural Pastures Cheese Company. One year later, our small, artisan cheese company was joined by Swiss Master Cheesemaker, Paul Sutter. Like us, Paul embraced the creative potential of fresh milk. At Natural Pastures, all of our traditional and inspired cheeses are handcrafted with the fresh, wholesome milk of Island cows and water buffalo. Our award-winning variety of cheeses reflect our commitment to constantly push our company to try new things, new ways, all while preserving the best practices from the past.
