The cheese maker has grown into one of the largest Swiss cheese manufacturers in the United States, with national and international recognition including U.S. Grand Champion honors in 2015 and 2019.MILLERSBURG, OH
Tern Ice CreamBorn from Josh Stuckey’s family experiments with homemade ice cream, Tern Ice Cream designs and makes a craft ice cream maker for producing smooth, dense frozen desserts at home. Drawing on Stuckey’s engineering background, the small team developed a patented fast-freeze bowl that can turn a pint of mix into ice cream in about five minutes, while allowing makers to use less fat and sugar and choose their own ingredients. Tern presents the process as a hands-on family activity as much as a kitchen appliance.
