ORONO - The White family dropped by Olde Oak Farm on Forest Avenue on Sunday afternoon to meet face to face the Nubian goats that give their favorite cheese spread its tangy flavor.

Elizabeth White, 15, left with some newly made mozzarella - made from organic cow's milk purchased from an organic dairy farm - that she planned to use to top off her next pizza. Her parents, Deb and Tim White, usually buy cheese from farm owners Scott Belanger and Jennifer Maeverde at the Orono Farmers Market.

The White family and about 50 other visitors came by the 3-acre farm, which was open to the public for Open Creamery Day. This was the second year the open farm day was sponsored by the Maine Cheese Guild.
