About Us
Team Mackenzie
Jean Mackenzie
Founder
Jean started Mackenzie Creamery in 2007 after taking two cheese-making classes and deciding to turn her passion into her life’s work. Previously heading the real estate division of an Ohio-area land conservancy, Jean brings her love for the land into operations at Mackenzie Creamery by ensuring green, eco-friendly cheese production.
Jean’s goat cheese recipes have won several awards. Today she continues to consult the company, helping Mackenzie Creamery continue to produce better cheese every day.

He is responsible for all production at the creamery, ingredient and packaging sourcing, regulatory compliance, and distribution of Mackenzie Creamery goat cheese to retailers and restaurants throughout the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions.

Team Chèvre

Several of our team members have been with us for many years, and Mackenzie Creamery is lucky to have such a committed group.
