Only a handful of yesterday's cheese producers have stood the test of time. The McCadam Cheese Company is one of them -- today, over 100 years later, McCadam's New York State Cheese is still being enjoyed by cheese lovers. The first cheeses were made in the farm kitchen. Wheels weighing from 30 to 100 lbs. were formed, coated in butter to prevent evaporation and placed in cool cellars to cure. When ready, the finished cheeses were stacked onto wagons and pulled by oxen to a loading place on the canal.
