Maplebrook Farm Expands At New Site

NORTH BENNINGTON — Drive by Maplebrook Farm's new production facility on Water Street, and you'll be greeted by the sweet smell of cherry smoke and a fresh new sign.

The local cheesemaking business has grown from humble beginnings at a kitchen to a large new production facility. It means the company, which distributes award-winning artisanal cheeses to markets and stores as far as California, will have the space to churn out more product and set its sights on future growth, according to co-owners Johann Englert and Michael Scheps.

"There's so much that's changed for us," Scheps said during a recent tour of the new production facility at 441 Water St. here.
