Merger, Red Clover and Cheese & Dairy

Merger, Red Clover and Cheese & Dairy

On December 31, 1965, Red Clover Cheese Factory merged with Tillamook Cheese and Dairy. It was the only small factory that sided with Cheese & Dairy during the Cheese War, and it remained independent although close to the town of Tillamook until the inefficiencies of small factory production, combined with production space in the large Tillamook factory, led to its closure. After the Cheese War ended, all of the remaining small factories were closed by Tillamook County Creamery Association.
