Creekside Cheese + Creamery is located at 3990 Chaplin Road in Agassiz. Visit them on Facebook under Creekside Cheese + Creamery.

The farm is presently overseen by Johannes and Julaine Treur, who purchased Creekside Dairy in 2011, according to Creekside’s website. Although the couple had been dairy farming at another location since 2003, with a long line of dairy farmers in his lineage, Johannes had been dreaming of dairy farming since he was a kid. Johannes grew up on a dairy farm in the Netherlands but was unable to see his dreams of dairying come to fruition until shortly after immigrating to Canada in 2002. Julaine and Johannes were married in 2005 and began growing both their family and their herd. The couple milks just over 100 cows on their well-kept farm in Agassiz.

Construction on the cheese shop and underground cheese cave began in November 2020, and the Treurs began making cheese in June 2021. The cheese shop officially opened in August 2021 in the beautiful countryside of Agassiz.
