One fine autumn day at Capriole Farm.



The goats were fully available for viewing, Judy Schad and her crew prepared an incredible lunch, and Oliver Winery brought its A-list Creekbend wines. The weather was gorgeous. Anyone ready to wash some cheese with beer?

As an addendum, here is the lunch menu:

Birria di Chivo (Mexican marinated/stewed young goat) in a Cornmeal Crepe with Cilantro 'creme fraiche'

Succotash of Fresh Corn, pickled green beans, and Three Sister's Black Beans

Persimmon Pudding with Brown Sugar Sauce & Chantilly

Orange-Passionfruit Iced Tea/Coffee (and wine)

  1. Because I know I'm not the only one who had no clue where this was and now wants to visit:

    From Louisville & northern Kentucky

    : 64 west (toward St. Louis) across the Sherman Minton Bridge
    · Exit 119 to Hwy 150
    · 150 about 12.5 miles, thru Greenville, to Hwy.335 & turn right
    · 2 miles on 335 & turn right onto New Cut Rd. (1st rd. on right on 335)
    · About ½ mile on New Cut to Capriole, 1st drive on right side of New Cut Rd.

  2. There are regular posted hours for buying cheese at the farm shop, but no tours. Capriole does a spring and fall open house each year, I think. The next one should be in May if so.
