Fair Oaks Farms®️ is located in Northwest Indiana and features tours of modern working farms such as the dairy and pig farms. Their mission is to educate the public about where your food comes from, nutrition and the importance of animal care.
More and more, consumers are curious about the process of their food, where it comes from and the safety of it.
The great thing about Fair Oaks Farms is that they have the opportunity to monitor their whole process.
They monitor what their animals are eating, their daily intake and making sure the animals are safe, happy and are producing nutritious and delicious products that their customers can count on.
Gourmet Gift Collections
Some of the products that the farm offers are their gourmet gift collections. We picked the gourmet gifts as one of the best gift ideas because of their uniqueness and class.
It’s an Indiana secret and a great one that we are spreading the word about.
The gift collections are handpicked varieties of their award-winning cheeses put together to please the palate of anyone. And to put it frankly, who doesn’t love cheese?
Cheese is a Great Gift
From cooking meals such as pasta, pizzas, sandwiches, and salads to snacking or creating an experience with your loved ones like an in-home wine and cheese pairing, cheese (especially award-winning) can top the list as one of the best gift ideas.
Check out some of the top-selling gourmet gift collections from Fair Oaks Farms such as the Heartland Collection that offers a mixture of both smoked and spicy cheese varieties.
