Wezenspyk Cheese Farm

Wezenspyk Cheese Farm makes the authentic “Echte Texelse” farmhouse and sheep’s milk cheese. Farmer Anton Witte has been making the original Texel cheeses since 1981.

The milk is sourced from cows and sheep that graze on Texel. Wezenspyk started making Texel goats’ cheese in 2007.
