Sweetwater Valley Farm, Inc. received a $238,000 Value Added Producer Grant from the USDA Rural Development agency in 2020 to expand production and distribution of their cheese throughout the Southeast region. The grant funded three initiatives: 1) Reducing milk costs by utilizing more of their own 45 million pounds of annual milk production for cheesemaking instead of selling raw milk; 2) Investing in new cheese draining equipment to decrease processing costs; and 3) Purchasing new packaging equipment to replace 30-year-old machinery that was causing quality issues and requiring repackaging, thereby increasing labor costs. These initiatives aimed to reduce their $3.51 per pound cost of goods sold for cheese, with milk accounting for 57% and labor 23% of costs. Sweetwater Valley Farm, Inc. also received two sub-awards from the University of Tennessee, which was the prime grantee, describing the same three innovation projects to expand cheese production capabilities and reduce operating costs to better compete in local markets.
