Title: Owner
Acres Wild Cheesemaking Farmstay
Acres Wild is our 22 acre, family-run organic cheesemaking farm and farmstay (Bed and Breakfast) in Coonoor town (altitude 6000 ft) which is a small hill station in the Nilgiri Hills in Tamil Nadu state in South India. Coonoor is about 20 km from Ooty (Udhagamandalam).
Our goal at Acres Wild farm is to shape an eco-friendly, holistic and self-sustaining life style, grow our own food organically and share this experience with visitors to our farmstay.
We hope to adhere to the following principles at our farm. Use no chemicals, increase bio-diversity and to keep tillage to a minimum.
The Farmstay
The Cheesemaking
Making gourmet cheese from the milk of our hybrid Jersey and Holstein cows is a key activity at the farm. Gourmet cheeses are handmade natural-rind cheeses, the outcome of months of painstaking care and nurturing. Each of these cheeses has an independent flavor, and unlike processed cheeses they carry the flavors of their natural habitat. Depending on the period of aging, the texture and flavor of these cheeses range from mild and soft to sharp, dry, and hard. All our cheeses are made of microbial rennet and therefore 100% vegetarian.File:Http://www.acres-wild.com/Acres Wild Album - Aug 2008/album/slides/Hard Cheese Paper Packed.html
