Original Henning's Cheese Factory 1914
Henning Family
|
|
In 1914, Otto and Norma Henning made a decision to purchase a rural hometown cheese factory, near Kiel, Wisconsin and devoted their lives to producing quality cheese.
Their son Everett and his wife Jellane took the factory over in 1963. Everett is still very involved with the factory today.
Since then, three of Everett's children, Kay, Kerry and Kert and granddaughter Mindy continue the tradition. 90 years and two facility upgrades later, Henning's Wisconsin Cheese still stands as a testament to the family's commitment to making great cheese locally for enjoyment nationally.
Small local family dairy farms continue to provide Henning's cheese with a source of quality milk. With the help of Henning's dedicated employees, consistent quality continues to be our best source of pride.
