Wisconsin Creamery Detailed Description The sheepmilk  at Wisconsin Sheep Dairy Cooperative (WSDC) is produced with meticulous attention to cleanliness, as well as with respect for the environment and the well-being of our animals. Member farms milk between 100 to 400 sheep seasonally, between February and September. During the spring and summer, the ewes, of the East Friesian or Lacaune breeds, have access to the greenest pastures available. Twice a day, the flocks return to the barns for milking. The milk is collected very gently, while the ewes are eating natural grains, and cooled quickly. The milk is picked up from the farms and used to produce our cheese.
