Curds and Whey<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Lavishly illustrated, this book presents the history of the creameries, cheese factories, and dairy farms in Coos and Curry Counties in Southwestern Oregon, including:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The unique history of the early creameries and cheese factories in Southwestern Oregon, where they were located, what they produced along with individual stories about each.<\/li>\n
  • A documentation of pioneer dairy farmers who made the dairy industry a major part of the early economy of Southwestern Oregon.<\/li>\n
  • How the \u201cmosquito fleet\u201d of riverboats were key in supporting the dairy industry\u2014getting milk to market, and to butter and cheese factories in the region.<\/li>\n
  • All supported by unique photographs, charts, and interesting stories.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    In 2021, there were 7,500 beef cattle in Coos County, Oregon and about 3,700 dairy cows. One-hundred years ago, there were 11,000 dairy cows and less than 2,000 beef cattle in the county; and by 1940 the statistics continued to favor dairying with over 15,300 milk cows reported in Coos County and only 1,700 beef cattle.<\/p>\n

    What changed? You\u2019ll find out in Curds and Whey: A History of the Creameries and Cheese Factories in Coos and Curry Counties, Oregon.<\/p>\n
