On A Mission

Dedicated to Sustainability, Service, and Creating the World’s Finest Handmade Cheese.

Inspired by a sense of place for over 85 years, Rogue Creamery draws from the beauty and flavors of Southern Oregon’s Rogue River Valley to create organic, handcrafted cheeses that have won international acclaim. But creating the world’s best cheese is only part of our mission. We know that business can be used as a force for good. That’s why we became Oregon’s first public benefit corporation, “B Corp” for short, joining a global movement of companies that are committed to making the world a better place.

We’re USDA Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth

In 2016, Rogue Creamery – along with our Dairy Farm and all our products – became USDA Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth. Our cheeses proudly bear the Organic seal because they are made with 100% organic ingredients. This certification verifies that we adhere to the highest standards of quality, producing cheese that’s good for both people and planet. This includes:

  • Promoting soil health and biodiversity
  • Preserving native crop varieties to maintain healthy ecosystems
  • Reducing exposure to pesticides, growth hormones, and antibiotics
  • Improving water quality
  • Healthy working environments for farm workers and our rural neighbors
  • The best protection against GMO’s
  • Ethical stewardship of our land and farm animals
  • Prioritizing animal health and welfare

Best for the World

Rogue Creamery has been ranked as a “Best For the World” B Corporation since 2017, because we place in the top 10% of B Corps worldwide for our positive impact on our community and environment. This is measured by an independent governing body, B Lab, using a biennial audit of our business practices.
