When you think Wisconsin, you think Cheese! And we have it! Turtle Lake is home to a new plant that began processing cheese in 2004. The plant focuses on Italian-style production; however, Lake Country Dairy also has two other partners in the meat business and markets its own line of natural flavored cheese such as Co-Jack under the 'Lumberjack' label.  Lake Country Dairy, a 60,000-square-foot cheese manufacturing, packaging and distribution facility, is situated on 14 acres of land. Construction began in September 2001 and was complete by early 2003. The first phase of construction was the plant's milk intake. During the building process, the company continued to buy and sell milk. Lake Country Dairy has the capacity to process about 2 million pounds of milk per day and the capability of making roughly 80,000 pounds of cheese per day.  Visit the plant and get a taste of fresh cheese and the cheese-making process. Grab a Cedar Crest ice cream cone and just try to resist sampling all of the exciting flavors of cheese that Lake Country Dairy has to offer. For more information about Lake Country Dairy and their products, please call (715) 986-2893 or visit the Arthur Shuman website as they are a vendor of this well known company.

The Trail is surrounded by trees of all kinds, hardwoods, softwoods, pines, fields, and beautiful wetlands full of color, fresh air, and wildlife. The Cattail Trail is a Multi-Use Trail and we ask everyone to practice caution while utilizing this resource.
