GREENVILLE — The Marcoot sisters make cheese for a living.
Mozzarella, Alpine Forest, havarti, Tomato-Basil Jack, gouda and more on the family farm.
"We literally touch every step of the process," said Amy, 29, manager of the Marcoot Jersey Creamery. She, sisters Brooke, 24, Beth, 27, and friend Audie Wall, 30, turn the milk of 60 Jersey cows into hand-crafted cheese.
No skim-milk products sold here. Jersey milk is high in butterfat.
The young Marcoot women are seventh-generation dairy farmers. But they didn't have to be.
