About Springbank Cheese Company

Established in 1960 and proudly operated by three generations of the Hemsworth family, with the support of our friendly, experienced, and dedicated staff.

Our Story

Springbank Cheese Company was established in 1960 by Frank Hemsworth and has been proudly operated by three generations of the Hemsworth family, with the support of our friendly, experienced, and dedicated staff.

Our namesake, the Springbank Snow Countess, was a celebrated Holstein cow who held the world record for lifetime butterfat production. A statue stands in her honour in Woodstock, Ontario, at the site of her former home, Springbank Farm.

Today, Springbank Cheese offers many high-quality cheeses — both domestically produced and imported from around the world.
