THE STUYT FAMILY


Picture
Rick and Ansally Stuyt
Rick and Ansally Stuyt both come from five generations of dairy farming in the Netherlands. During World War II, both had uncles who made cheese in exchange for goods so the family could survive. Ansally was born in the Netherlands. Her parents immigrated to the United States in 1961 and purchased the dairy they now own and operate in 1965. With 90 acres and approximately 500 Holstein cows, Rick and Ansally are proud to co-own not only the dairy; but, the cheese plant too. Rick grew up in the Netherlands always having a passion for the dairy industry. He interned on several small dairies which was where he learned the process of cheese making. In 1985 Rick came to the United States. As the years progressed, Rick developed a deeper passion to pursue his childhood dream of cheese making. It began as a small project just making cheese for the family and developed into Stuyt Dairy Farmstead Cheese Company, LLC with the first official batch being made on September 29, 2015.
