Calkins Creamery is a family-owned creamery located on a farm in Honesdale, in northeastern Pennsylvania. It was founded in 2007 by Jennifer Rudnitsky and her family, with the goal of enhancing the long-standing tradition of the Calkins family farm.

The cows grazing on the farm’s pastures provide the milk that is processed on-site into cheeses, ensuring complete quality control – from animal feed to the final product. The creamery’s offerings include a wide range of cheeses, from fresh varieties to semi-hard and surface-ripened styles. The focus is on traditional cheesemaking techniques combined with modern expertise, resulting in cheeses of rich flavor and authentic character that reflect the terroir of the region. As a local producer, Calkins Creamery is deeply connected to its community – their cheeses are sold directly on the farm, in specialty shops, and at farmers’ markets, while also supplying restaurants eager to feature artisanal products on their menus.

In this way, the creamery not only preserves tradition and agricultural sustainability but also contributes to the development of Pennsylvania’s and the broader region’s gastronomic culture.
