Good for creatures, good for cheese
Nature’s blessing to Foxenburg’s cheese is the high Groenberg mountain terrain with its fynbos and indigenous flora which adds a beautiful flavour to our goat milk. The high mountain location benefits cheese maturation and enhances the aroma of the milk … you will taste the distinct flavours and textures so typical of Foxenburg’s cheeses.
Our cheeses are made from 100% whole goat milk … free of artificial preservatives, hormones & antibiotics.
The soul of slow food –
handmade, artisan cheese
We follow slow production methods – typical of Italian and French farmhouse cheese-making methods … brimming with the wholesomeness of traditional slow food making.
Our soft Chevre, Chabris and cream cheeses are made in the French farmhouse tradition … and the age-ripened hard cheeses such as Renosterbos Mature, Shepherd, Caprino Romano and Foxtail are crafted in Italian farm style.
Alles eg, plaasvars. Van grond tot mond. Die ware Jakob. Altyd mooi op Foxenburg, ’n regte werkplaas.

In the cheesery, amidst shining steel vats, filled with whirling, fresh goat milk straight from two daily sessions of milking – you will find Foxenburg’s cheesemaker. Wini Borchard has been crafting award-winning cheeses and yoghurts in this lush fynbos landscape since 2011.
She uses 100% whole goat milk – free of artificial preservatives, hormones & antibiotics.
Wini and her team check and package each hand-crafted cheese manually to ensure optimum quality. Because this is Foxenburg … real working farm attention to detail – and infused with the magical, uncompromising touch of nature.
