Who we are

About the farm

The Stewart family has farmed at Falside Farm near Pittenweem in Fife since the 1930s, and the dairy has always been central to the business. Today we – Robert and Jane, with our sons Ben and Adam – milk 200 homebred Friesian Holstein cows with a robotic milking system and grow winter wheat, winter and spring barley and oilseed rape. Since January 2008 we have been making traditional cheese from our own milk: Anster, Red Anster, Smoked Anster, St Andrews Farmhouse Cheddar aged for at least nine months, and a Cheddar smoked over whisky barrel chips. We sell our cheese at the cheese counter on the farm, Monday to Thursday 10 am–3.30 pm, and in our online shop.
