Three sisters in the Giacomini family are proudly at the helm of the Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company, on a lush stretch of land on the California coast overlooking Tomales Bay, a beautiful inlet from the Pacific Ocean. “100% women-owned. We are dairy farmers and artisans, delivering happiness through cheese,” proclaims the bio on their Instagram profile.
The journey of this family business dates back to 1904, when the sisters’ great grandfather, Tobia Giacomini, left Villa di Chiavenna in Lombardy, on the Italian border with Switzerland, to farm the fabled, fertile lands of California.
