Enjoy a South Mountain Creamery Farm Tour for up to 10 people!  You can see the cows being milked as well as help feed the baby calves. The only operation that is not open to the public is the milk plant, due to health department regulations. However, we do open the plant to the public twice a year during our festivals (April and October).  SMC is located in Middletown, MD approximately 1 hour from McLean, VA.  Tour includes a goodie bag and single scoop of ice cream for tour participants.

South Mountain Creamery started in April 2001 as an attempt to increase our farm's income from our milking cows. We had our first Open House on May 5, 2001 and soon after began our first home delivery route in Middletown. We had 13 homes we delivered to out of the back of a Ford Explorer. We quickly grew and added our first milk truck in June 2001. Over the past 10 years we have grown to servicing over 7500 homes in MD, DC, VA, and WV. We cover about 2650 square miles. Since we started, we have added to our product line-- both with products that we make and products that we are able to find locally. We discovered many small operations that made a great product but did not have a way to bring it to the area. So, we started to add products from other farmers and other small family operations. Finally, we expanded some of our cheese offerings to include high quality premium cheese. In 2007 we began to offer fresh bread from The Breadery (Ellicott City, MD) and prepared meals from a local chef.
