Valentine’s Day Is Better With Cheese
Flowers fade. Chocolates disappear.
Cheese, however, brings people together.

This Valentine’s Day, skip the predictable gifts and choose Valentine’s Day cheese gifts that invite sharing and connection. Whether you’re planning a cozy night in, building a simple cheese board, or surprising someone with a thoughtful treat, cheese instantly makes Valentine’s Day feel more relaxed, more personal, and far more delicious.

Why Cheese Works So Well for Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be extravagant to feel meaningful. In fact, the best celebrations often happen when you slow down, gather around the table, and enjoy good food together.

Cheese fits the moment perfectly because it:
- encourages sharing and conversation
- pairs effortlessly with wine, crackers, fruit, or chocolate
- feels indulgent without being overdone
- gives everyone something to enjoy together
As a result, cheese continues to play a role in celebrations year after year.

Valentine’s Day Cheese Gifts Everyone Will Love

Thankfully, creating a memorable Valentine’s Day doesn’t require complicated planning. Instead, a few well-chosen cheeses and simple pairings create an experience that feels thoughtful and intentional.

When building a Valentine’s cheese board, start with:
- one bold or sharp cheese to add depth
- one mild or creamy cheese to balance flavors
- one snackable option for easy sharing
Then, add crackers, sliced apples, grapes, or nuts. Altogether, these elements create a board that feels special without feeling overwhelming.

Choose a Cozy Night In Instead

Rather than battling crowded restaurants, consider staying in.

A cheese-centered Valentine’s dinner encourages grazing, conversation, and connection at your own pace. Whether you spread everything out on the kitchen counter or keep it casual on the coffee table, cheese naturally sets the tone for a relaxed and enjoyable evening — no reservations required.

A Valentine’s Gift That People Actually Use

When it comes to gifting, thoughtfulness matters more than flash.

That’s why Valentine’s Day cheese gifts stand out. They feel unexpected, easy to enjoy together, and perfect for couples, friends, or family. More importantly, they create moments — not clutter.

Pair cheese with a handwritten note, a favorite drink, or a movie night at home, and suddenly the gift feels both personal and practical.

Celebrate Valentine’s Day the Cheesy Way

Ultimately, Valentine’s Day is about connection. It’s about slowing down, sharing something good, and enjoying the moment together.

And just like love, cheese is best when shared.

50 Years of Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese: A Family Story Rooted in Tradition

In February of 1976, Ron and Marilyn Renard took a leap of faith and started what would become Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese. Ron was a licensed cheesemaker and cheese grader with a dream of building something of his own — a place where quality, craftsmanship, and community came first. That dream has now grown into five decades of cheese in Luxemburg, Wisconsin.

From the very beginning, Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese has been about more than just cheese. It was about creating a local gathering place, sharing fresh products with neighbors, and building a business rooted in hard work and family values.

From a Small Retail Shop to a Growing Business

In the early years, Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese operated as a small retail cheese store — famously sharing space with a laundromat and even a self-serve carwash. It wasn’t glamorous, but it was honest work, and customers kept coming back for the quality and friendliness they couldn’t find anywhere else .

By 1978, Ron began making cheese spreads, a move that would eventually grow into producing 14 different varieties at that time. The Herbs & Spice Spread quickly became a customer favorite and remains one of the biggest sellers to this day.

A True Family Business

As the business grew, so did the family’s involvement. In 1990, Ron and Marilyn’s son Terry joined the business after graduating college with a degree in Business Management. Together, Ron and Terry expanded Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese into wholesale, allowing their products to be sold throughout Wisconsin.

Growth continued into the 1990s with a major addition in 1992 that expanded both packaging and retail space. In March of 2000, the company officially incorporated as Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese, Inc., marking a new chapter while staying true to its roots.

Overcoming Challenges and Moving Forward

Like any long-standing business, Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese has faced its share of challenges. In May of 2002, a fire destroyed the interior of the cheese store, laundromat, and carwash. Thanks to determination, community support, and a lot of hard work, the business was restored over the following six months and reopened stronger than ever.

That same year, the former Luxemburg Clinic building was purchased to provide additional storage and parking — another step forward in preparing the business for the future.

Passing the Torch

In May of 2005, Ron and Marilyn sold half of the business to another son, Tim. By 2008, Tim and Terry Renard officially took over ownership, with Ron and Marilyn still helping part-time and remaining an important part of daily life at the business.

The family focus never changed — the goal remained the same: to continue offering the freshest, highest-quality cheese products to customers near and far.

Growing With the Times

As the business evolved, so did its reach. In 2009, Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese launched its website, opening the door to online ordering and allowing customers beyond Wisconsin to enjoy their products. In 2015, the business entered a new chapter when ownership transitioned to John T. Pagel, which began the first time Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese began making its own cheese, continuing the farm-focused legacy that customers trust.

John T Pagel purchases Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese

In 2020, production of cheese spreads was outsourced to ensure consistency and quality while allowing the team to focus on what they do best — making great cheese and serving customers well.

Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese is Celebrating 50 Years — and Looking Ahead

From a small shop with a laundromat to a trusted Wisconsin cheese brand, Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese has been built on dedication, family, and a commitment to quality that hasn’t wavered in 50 years.

As we celebrate this milestone, we want to thank every customer, employee, and community member who has been part of the journey. Whether you’ve been shopping with us for decades or just discovered us online, you are part of our story — and we can’t wait to see what the next 50 years bring.

Looking Back on 2025: Awards, Growth, and a Year That Changed Our Creamery
Ron’s Cheese Plant Team with 2025 World Dairy Expo Awards (Team members from left to right: Kiley, Trisha, Dede, Jessica, Haylee, and Morgan)

2025 was a milestone year for Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese — not just because of the awards we brought home, but because of what happened behind the scenes to make those moments possible.

As we step into the first week of 2026, we’ve been reflecting on a year that challenged us, stretched us, and ultimately rewarded us in ways we’re incredibly proud of.

A Year of Recognition on the National Stage

One of the biggest highlights of 2025 was seeing our cheese recognized across some of the most respected competitions in the dairy industry.

At the 2025 Wisconsin State Fair, our products earned:
- 2nd Place – Ron’s Garlic & Dill Cheese Curds
- 3rd Place – Ron’s Cheddar Cheese Curds
- 3rd Place – Ron’s Smoked String Cheese
At the 2025 American Cheese Society competition, we were honored with:
- 3rd Place – Ron’s Garlic & Dill Cheese Whips
- 3rd Place – Ron’s Snow Cheddar Spread
- 3rd Place – Ron’s Mozzarella Cheese Whips
And at the 2025 World Dairy Expo, we celebrated some of our strongest results yet:
- 1st Place – Ron’s Snow Cheddar Spread
- 2nd Place – Ron’s Three Pepper Cheese Curds
- 3rd Place – Ron’s Cheese Curds
Each award represented countless hours of work — from milk quality and make procedures to aging, handling, and consistency. Seeing that effort recognized by industry judges was a powerful reminder that doing things the right way truly matters.

A Milestone Year in the Cheese Plant

2025 wasn’t just big in awards — it was historic for our creamery.

This year marked the largest volume of cheese ever made in our cheese plant since it was built 10 years ago. That’s something we don’t take lightly.

With that increase came record-high cheese sales — the highest we’ve seen to date. Demand grew faster than ever, and with it came a major learning curve. Scaling production while maintaining quality meant adjusting processes, refining schedules, and sometimes learning lessons the hard way.

There were long days, fast pivots, and moments where we had to stop and ask, “How do we do this better next time?” Those moments shaped how we operate today.

Growth Comes With Growing Pains

With record production and sales came challenges we didn’t always anticipate.

We had to adapt quickly — whether it was managing increased demand, navigating busy shipping seasons, or rethinking how we communicate timelines and expectations. It wasn’t always smooth, but it was always intentional.

Every adjustment made us stronger, more efficient, and more prepared for the future.

Gratitude for the People Who Made It Happen

None of this would have been possible without the people behind the scenes.

Our team showed incredible dedication throughout 2025, stepping up during peak production, busy holiday weeks, and everything in between. Their commitment to quality and pride in their work is reflected in every award and every order shipped.

And to our customers — thank you.

Your support, loyalty, and trust are the reason we continue to grow. Every order, gift box, review, and recommendation helped make 2025 the year it was.

Looking Ahead to 2026

As we move into 2026, we’re carrying forward everything 2025 taught us — the wins, the lessons, and the motivation to keep improving.

We’re excited to build on this momentum, continue crafting award-winning cheese, and stay true to what matters most: quality, care, and community.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Here’s to another year of great cheese and even greater growth. 🧀

Your Thanksgiving Cheese Board Game Plan
Gather, Graze, and Give Thanks

Thanksgiving isn’t just about the turkey — it’s about gathering, grazing, and sharing food that brings people together. A beautiful Wisconsin cheese board sets the stage for connection, conversation, and flavor before the main feast even begins.

This year, create a spread that’s equal parts rustic and refined using Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese — handcrafted right on our Kewaunee farm. From squeaky curds to creamy spreads, it’s everything you need for a board that looks stunning and tastes unforgettable.

Step 1: Choose 3–5 Cheeses

Variety is the key to a great cheese board. Mix textures, colors, and flavor profiles for balance.

Ron’s picks for the holiday table:
- 🧀 Snow Cheddar – Naturally white with nutty, sweet notes that pair beautifully with cranberries or apples.
- 🧀 Three Pepper Cheddar – Bold and Spicy, complex depth; perfect for bold palates.
- 🧀 Cheese Spreads – Easy, creamy, and crowd-pleasing; serve with pretzels or crostini.
- 🧀 Fresh Cheese Curds – For snacking while you cook (or to keep kids happy before dinner!).
👉 Shop All Wisconsin Cheeses →

Step 2: Add Complementary Flavors

Think salty, sweet, crunchy, and fresh. Surround your cheeses with pairings that highlight Wisconsin’s best fall flavors.

Try adding:
- Local meats like summer sausage or smoked turkey
- Cranberry chutney, fig jam, or honey
- Sliced apples, pears, or grapes
- Roasted nuts (pecans, almonds, or walnuts)
- Artisan crackers or rustic bread
The goal? Every bite should have contrast — creamy + crunchy, sharp + sweet, simple + surprising.

Step 3: Presentation Makes It Special

Choose a large wooden board or slate. Start with the cheeses first, spacing them evenly. Then fill the gaps with fruits, nuts, and crackers.

Add a few cheese knives or spreaders, label each cheese, and garnish with sprigs of rosemary or thyme for a festive touch.

Pro tip: Let cheese sit out for about 30 minutes before serving — it enhances the flavor and aroma.

Step 4: Pair It Like a Pro

Round out the experience with Wisconsin-inspired drinks:
- Wine: Pinot Noir or Chardonnay with Snow Cheddar.
- Beer: Amber ales or malty lagers pair beautifully with aged cheddar.
Step 5: Keep the Celebration Going

After the feast, your guests will ask where the cheese came from — and that’s your cue to share!

Encourage them to explore Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese Gift Boxes. They make perfect hostess gifts or thank-you surprises throughout the holiday season.

🧡 From Our Farm to Your Feast

Whether you’re setting the table for family or friends, a handcrafted Wisconsin cheese board makes Thanksgiving more memorable.

Every bite of Ron’s cheese carries the flavor of Kewaunee — fresh milk, farmstead pride, and genuine Wisconsin hospitality.

Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese at the Kewaunee County Farm to Fork Gala
Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese had the honor of setting up the meat and cheese table at this year’s Farm to Fork Gala, hosted by the Kewaunee County Dairy Promotion Committee. The evening brought farmers, producers, and neighbors together to celebrate agriculture and the community it sustains.

A Community Celebration

The Farm to Fork Gala is more than a dinner. It is a reminder of how food connects people to the land and to the families who produce it. Guests enjoyed a night filled with conversation, local flavors, and a strong sense of community pride.

Our Contribution to the Table

Our team was proud to prepare a spread that highlighted Wisconsin’s best flavors. The table featured:
- 🧀 Fresh cheese curds (a true Wisconsin favorite)
- 🧀 Our signature Snow Cheddar and specialty cheddars
- 🧀 Classic Cheese Whips
By sharing our products, we were able to tell our farmstead story—cheese crafted in Kewaunee with milk from our own herd at Pagel’s Ponderosa Dairy.

Why Farm to Fork Matters

Events like this gala matter because they connect consumers with local farms. Supporting agriculture means protecting traditions, strengthening rural communities, and ensuring future generations can carry on Wisconsin’s cheesemaking legacy.

A Thank You to the Community

We are grateful to the Kewaunee County Dairy Promotion Committee for inviting us to be part of this year’s event. In addition, we thank the many volunteers who made the evening possible and the guests who stopped by our table.

We look forward to more opportunities to celebrate and share the flavors of our farmstead with the community.

A Legacy of Cheese: How Wisconsin Became the Dairy State
Wisconsin’s love affair with cheese runs deep — and it’s no coincidence the state proudly wears the title America’s Dairyland. From humble beginnings to a booming, world-class industry, the story of Wisconsin cheese is one of hard work, heritage, and flavor that’s recognized around the globe.

🧑‍🌾 It Started with the Land

In the mid-1800s, European immigrants — especially from Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands — brought centuries-old cheesemaking traditions to Wisconsin. They quickly saw the land’s potential. With a cool climate, lush pastures, and abundant fresh water, Wisconsin was perfect for raising dairy cows and producing rich, high-quality milk.

As small dairy farms spread across the state, families began turning surplus milk into cheese. It wasn’t just a practical way to preserve milk — it became a staple of local diets and a source of pride for farming communities. Cheesemaking soon wove itself into the cultural fabric of Wisconsin life.

🧀 An Industry Takes Shape

By the early 20th century, Wisconsin had surged to the top of U.S. cheese production — and it hasn’t let go of the title since. Rural cheese factories flourished, and skilled cheesemakers trained new generations through hands-on apprenticeships. Innovation in aging techniques, flavor development, and equipment design kept Wisconsin ahead of the curve.

Today, the state produces over 600 varieties, types, and styles of cheese, from classic cheddars and squeaky curds to award-winning artisan creations. Wisconsin also boasts more Master Cheesemakers than anywhere else in the world, ensuring each wheel and wedge meets the highest standards of quality.

🧡 Carrying the Legacy at Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese

At Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese, we’re honored to be part of this rich cheesemaking heritage. From our farmstead operation in Kewaunee County to our family-run production facility in Luxemburg, every batch we make carries forward the values that built Wisconsin’s reputation: quality ingredients, skilled craftsmanship, and local pride.

We use milk from our own cows, ensuring freshness and consistency from pasture to plate. Our lineup — from Snow Cheddar to squeaky fresh cheese curds — reflects the same dedication Wisconsin cheesemakers have shown for generations.

For us, cheesemaking isn’t just a business; it’s a way to honor our roots, support our community, and share the unmistakable flavor of Wisconsin with cheese lovers everywhere.

📜 Fun Facts About Wisconsin Cheese
- Wisconsin produces over 3.4 billion pounds of cheese annually.
- The state was the first in the U.S. to require cheesemaker licensing (since 1994).
- Only Wisconsin offers the rigorous Master Cheesemaker Program — the “Ph.D. of cheese.”
- Cheese curds are so popular here that they have their own dedicated festivals.
Whether you’re a lifelong Wisconsinite or a cheese-loving visitor, one thing is certain — when you enjoy Wisconsin cheese, you’re tasting over 175 years of tradition, innovation, and passion.

🐄 Celebrating June Dairy Month at the Farm

🐄 Celebrating June Dairy Month at the Farm

At Ron’s Wisconsin Cheese, we spent the month doing what we do best: making fresh, handcrafted cheese right here on our family farm in Kewaunee. Here’s a look back at how we celebrated June Dairy Month (and how we carry that spirit all year long).

🧀 Farmstead Cheese, Made Fresh Daily

All month long, our team crafted batches of fresh cheese curds, Snow Cheddar, mozzarella whips, and more — using milk from our very own herd.

Dairy Month is a reminder that real cheese starts with real farms. No shortcuts. No outsourcing. Just good milk, happy cows, and generations of know-how.

📸 Behind-the-Scenes Moments

We shared a few sneak peeks on Facebook and Instagram — from stirring curds in the vat to packaging squeaky-fresh bags for delivery. Thank you to everyone who liked, commented, and tagged us in your own cheese celebrations!

Didn’t see them? Follow along @ronswisconsincheese for more behind-the-scenes fun.

🛒 Cheese, Events & Local Stores

Throughout June, we stocked shelves and coolers across Wisconsin with our best-selling cheeses. We also visited a few local events to hand out samples and connect with curd lovers in person.

We even chatted with our friends at We Are Green Bay. See the video here.

If you spotted Ron’s in your local store or at a sporting event, tag us with #SnackWithRons — we’d love to feature your photo!

🧡 A Huge Thank You

To our farm team, cheesemakers, delivery drivers, and loyal customers — THANK YOU. Dairy Month is a celebration of all of you.

We’re proud to be part of Wisconsin’s dairy legacy. And we’ll keep honoring it every month of the year — one curd at a time.
