About The Company
Located in the heart of Wisconsin’s Dairyland, Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery produces 190,000 pounds of cheddar cheese curds daily. They’re so delicious that we’ve earned the title of “Cheese Curd Capital of Wisconsin®”, a title bestowed by Governor Anthony S. Earl in 1983. Our all-natural premium cheddar cheese curds can be found in all 50 states and around the world. Our Wohlt Creamery, in New London, WI, joined the team in 2018. Specializing in high-quality and customized processed cheeses for food service, retail deli, and pre-packaged food manufacturers, at Wohlt, quality and innovation are woven into the culture.
