Our Family Tradition

                                                                                

It's love

The Achadinha (Osh-a-deen-a) Cheese Company is a family run adventure with Jim and Donna Pacheco leading the whey.  With the help of their 4 children and a team of enthusiastic cheese lovers they carry on a family tradition that began in the 1950's with Jim's parents. Stories abound about how cheese was made in the old country (Portugal) and although some things have changed the rich complex flavors found in superior artisanal cheese remain. Discover what makes our cheese special and why we are so proud to bring it directly from the ranch to you.

Cheeses

We are delighted to offer a wonderful selection of farmstead cheeses. From the award winning Capricious to our whimsical California Crazy Curd we really do have something for everyone.

Farmers' Markets

 We serve our customers (fans) in over 90 Farmer's Markets in the San Francisco Bay Area, all within a 2 hour drive of the ranch. Without these markets and the support we receive from people who appreciate the wonderful products we make by hand, Achadinha would not have had an opportunity to share our passion for quality and freshness with our community. Thank you, all.
Recipes


There are few things in life that allow the breadth of travel, intensity of emotion and pure satisfaction for the human soul as excellent food well prepared. We are happy to share some of the ways we enjoy our cheese and invite you to share some of yours.
