The Adirondacks are home to a quietly growing local cheese scene, and now’s your chance to visit some of these cheesemakers (including friends-of-Cheese Notes Sugarhouse Creamery — located in Upper Jay, NY and makers of Poundcake, Little Dickens, Dutch Knuckle and many other fine cheeses). The foliage up there should be pretty spectacular this time of year as well, if you need the deal sweetened. Check out the Facebook page for more details:The cheesemakers of Essex County are delighted to announce the Third Annual Essex County Cheese Tour! This self-guided driving tour follows the scenic Ausable River Valley through the foothills of the Adirondacks. It’s the perfect excuse to get out and soak up the fall foliage while also treating your tastebuds. On-farm tours and cheese samples are free! Cheesy lunch fare is available to purchase, and farm stores will be open for sales. This year, those that have their “passport” stamped by all three creameries, will have a chance to win one of three prizes.Three locations will be included in the tour: North Country Creamery (931 Mace Chasm Rd., Keeseville), Asgaard Farm & Dairy (74 Asgaard Way, Au Sable Forks) and Sugar House Creamery (18 Sugar House Way, Upper Jay).
