Now this is noteworthy: a Philadelphia newspaper actually did a feature story on Chester County without describing it as "sleepy"!
Adam Erace wrote a story called "Run for the Hills" for the Nov. 15 edition of the Philadelphia City Paper about the cheeses made at Richard Hayne's Doe Run Farm here in West Marlborough. He wrote that the farm "sits on softly rolling meadows of south
Chester County. Those wild fairways inform the style and flavor of the
fine cheeses [Kristian] Holbrook and his wife, Haesel Charlesworth, craft for sale
at local markets and restaurants neighborhoody and star-spangled alike. ... Doe Run’s flagship, the Gouda-style Seven Sisters, is
available all year, as is the Alpine-style St. Malachi, which Holbrook
named for the quaint white church at the top of a hill visible from the
creamery. But the dairy’s crown jewel is available only in spring and
summer. Hummingbird is a bloomy rind American robiola, one of the most
compelling artisan cheeses made in our fine state. Or anywhere, for that
matter — it won first place at the American Cheese Society’s 2011
conference."
