About Andrew & Everett^®

Andrew & Everett^® cheeses offer natural, clean label, preservative and hormone-free products from grass-fed cows raised on small, fourth generation family-owned farms in the heartland of America.  Each farm has around only 15 heads of cattle, allowing for smaller batches of cheese that are all produced from the first run of the day, to ensure no cross-contamination and the cleanest cheese possible. The “farm-to-table” freshness is also ensured, as the milk is made into cheese within 48 hours by master and artisan cheese makers. Their products are made with vegetarian rennet, contain no antibiotics, artificial hormones, artificial preservatives, artificial colors, binders, or fillers, and are gluten-free.  No cows are injected with synthetic rBGH-BST growth hormones or fed animal by-products. No antibiotics are used for any of their cows, so if cows become ill and antibiotics are necessary, they are removed from the dairy herd and their milk is used for conventional cheese. All Andrew & Everett products are produced in gluten-free facilities and tested on a regular basis to ensure the non-presence of glutens. Andrew & Everett cheeses are the only American variety of cheeses sold at Whole Foods, meeting the highest standards.

Their national distribution covers an extensive list of national first-rate natural/specialty retailers and exceptional standards of ingredients and production place Andrew & Everett in the top tier of assisting consumers in making clear, informed decisions about the healthy foods they choose.
