Cedar Grove Cheese | Know Your Wisconsin

Established over 100 years ago, Cedar Grove Cheese Factory has a traditional approach for creating Wisconsin cheese. They utilize locally-farmed, high-quality milk, and small-scale production. However, when it comes to environmental sustainability and keeping the neighborhood clean, Cedar Grove has stepped up and created what’s known as the Living Machine. Bob Wills explains, “We have 8,000 gallons of water a day that we need to get cleaned up, and the Living Machine speeds up what nature would do to clean water. These plants take about 15 percent of the nutrients out of the water. We have microbes that live in the water, and the plants clean up the residual milk and whey and wash water from the cleaning processes in the plant. It takes about three days to pass through the Living Machine, at which point, it’s clean enough we can discharge it to the creek here.” The effects of this process are on full display at Cedar Grove Cheese Factory, with beautiful flowers, fresh vegetables, and thriving fish. <br /><br />Love Wisconsin?

Beckman Mill: The Confluence of Nature and History | Know Your Wisconsin

Six miles west of Beloit, a historic landmark, the Beckman Mill, has been restored to its previous grandeur. The restoration was completed in 1997 by the Friends of Beckman Mill Volunteer Work Crew. It includes a 19th Century gristmill that is once again in operational condition, grinding corn and giving visitors to the park a glimpse of Wisconsin’s rural history. The Mill’s power is supplied by the original water-driven level turbine, which dates back to 1860. <br />“The rural part of the history wasn’t always told, well now we have a way of doing that,” said Marty Densch, a member of the Friends of Beckman Mill. “We have an example to show people. It’s the entire experience. It’s the trees, the blue sky, the blue water, and that sound, that ever-present sound of the water rushing over the dam. It’s sort of the confluence of nature and history.”<br /><br />Love Wisconsin?

Cave of the Mounds | Know Your Wisconsin

Cave of the Mounds, located 20 miles west of Madison, was accidentally discovered back in 1939 when workers removing limestone from a quarry blasted into the cave. It revealed a cave over 20 feet high, made completely out of limestone, that opened up into separate rooms and galleries. “It began forming two million years ago and it is continuing to form today, so it’s an actively forming cave. All of the crystal formations that you’ll see here underground are still actively growing,” said Joe Klimczak. “The fossils that we see on the cave are 400 million years old, so it’s really a slice of Wisconsin history way, way back in time.” Explorers and visitors from all over have been going to the cave for over 75 years to see this ever-changing natural limestone cave.<br /><br />Love Wisconsin?
