Cheese retail, active early-morning production and short free factory tours inside the same family-run rural cheese factory.

Union Star's Fremont factory makes cheese five days a week starting around 4 a.m. and sells cheddar, cheese curds, mozzarella string cheese, flavored muensters and other products at the same property. The dedicated tour page schedules free approximately 30-minute tours Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8 to 8:30 a.m.; groups smaller than 10 do not need advance scheduling. A broader location paragraph loosely says tours are available every day except Sunday, but the dedicated schedule is the controlling visitor guidance. Production varies: cheddar and curds are generally made Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with string cheese on Tuesday, but a particular product, stage or sample is not guaranteed. Willow Creek in Berlin and The Cheese Table in Neenah are separate locations and contribute no details to this record.
