The Tillamook Way

Made by Makers

The only thing we love
more than making our food,
is making it for you.

We Respect Tradition,never thinktraditionally

We’re a family, led by farmers, who get to wake up everyday and do what we love. That includes making high quality food that tastes great by doing it in a way that cares for cows, land and farming communities. We do right by our people and our products so you can focus on doing right by your family.

WE CARE ABOUT
THE FUTURE
We are committed to doing right by the land, cows, our farmer families and the communities in which we serve. That’s why we’re investing millions into fighting food insecurity, supporting small businesses in Tillamook, Oregon, and pioneering innovative ways to protect farmland and farmers to ensure they thrive for generations to come.
WE ARE
MAKERS
We wake up each day with a whole lot of passion and pride to make your food the right way. That means not taking any shortcuts and using only the finest ingredients. We go the extra mile to naturally age our cheddar cheese and source berries from right here in the Pacific Northwest.
WE MAKE IT
TOGETHER
While the food we make is infused with passion, hard work and quality, we also know that the real magic begins when you choose Tillamook to create new and delicious meals for those you care about. Together, this is how we do right by every bite.

Meet the Makers

Hi there, We’reTillamook

Meet the faces of Tillamook (because we’re no faceless corporation).

"I love seeing my family enjoy the products I develop, especially my young nieces and nephews! I am officially their favorite aunt because I make ice cream recipes they can point out at the store. Nothing beats a picture text of the kiddos eating the ice cream flavors I've made."

Recipe Master

Anna

Anna is one of our Product Development Scientists. She creates some of your favorite recipes from Tillamook, but she totally nerds out when dreaming up new extra-creamy ice cream flavors and products. Anna earned her degree from Oregon State University. Go Beavers!
