At Marin French we’ve been passionate about cheesemaking since 1865. So, in 2015 we’re taking a look back over the 150 years we’ve spent here at Hicks Valley Ranch making our original, handcrafted soft-ripened cheeses. While honoring our tradition we celebrate the innovation and exciting awards our company is enjoying today. Every day we welcome visitors to sample cheese and picnic by the pond. We hear stories of couples who got engaged over a cheese-picnic, learned to drive in our parking lot, met the school bus under our big Cheese Factory sign, or worked in the packing room during school breaks.
