Morningstar Farm and Little Qualicum Cheeseworks are situated on a beautiful 68 heritage farm just minutes from downtown Qualicum Beach and Parksville. We have a herd of about 60 dairy cows that we milk morning and evening. During the day, when the pastures are drier, our girls are happily grazing while our cheese makers are processing that day's milk into one of our award winning cheeses! They graze on our farm (weather permitting) and we supplement with alfalfa. We feed our cows approximately 8 pounds of grain per day.

You can watch them make cheese from one of our viewing windows. Come for a self guided tour or an organized group tour which includes a hay ride (weather permitting), informative stations around the farm and cheese tasting in our farm gate store.

Our store has our own home-grown pork and beef, free range eggs and lots of other farmy souvenirs. If you let us know a little further in advance, we could organize a party for you. Big or small, casual or out-door dining out on the front lawn, under the willow, down by the pond.
