-Nasonville Dairy was honored as the Marshfield Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s 2017 Firm of the Year last night.Nasonville was honored during MACCI’s Firm of the Year Dinner at River Edge Golf Course in Marshfield. Arnie and Rena Mae and their sons, Ken, Kelvin and Kim Heiman, began making cheese for the Dairy in 1965. Today, three generations of the Heiman family continue their commitment to the art of cheesemaking, a blend of nature, science, artistry and tradition to make Nasonville’s delicious and nutritious cheese products. They value perfection and win awards, but their passion also means they never stop learning and creating the best cheeses.
While there are 1,200 licensed cheesemakers in Wisconsin, just 52 of them have achieved the designation of Master Cheesemaker. That is what makes Ken Heiman, who became a Wisconsin licensed cheesemaker by age 16, so dedicated to this craft. Ken is also on the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board and the Heiman family is one of the co-host of the 2018 Wisconsin Farm Technology Days, which is being held in July in Wood County.
