Flat Creek Lodge Blog

"Finding your way home" has new meaning for Jeff Mulling, the new Dairy & Farm Manager at Flat Creek Lodge. Mulling is a native of Midville, just 12 miles away from the Lodge, but he spent the last 28 years in Savannah working in the banking industry. When presented with the opportunity to work at the Dairy, he was thrilled to find himself once again among the community and environment he calls home.

Though the banking industry may seem like a world away from working on a dairy and farm, Mulling says that the two aren't all that different. He uses the skills he honed within the banking industry every single day at the Lodge.

A core focus of his plan for the future of the dairy and farm is to increase the brand awareness and position Flat Creek as a high quality producer of cheese, berries and mushrooms. The team will also look to expand selling to distributors to help get products to as many end consumers as possible. He enjoys working with the dairy team, and credits them for producing a quality and innovative line of artisan cheese. The team is always experimenting and has plans to expand into new categories and flavor profiles going forward.

Mulling finds just being on the Flat Creek property "calming," and he is thankful for the opportunity to be at the Lodge, calling it a "dream come true!"

We wanted to spotlight one of the places that you're able to find Flat Creek Lodge's cheese - Watermelon Creek Vineyards. What better way to serve our cheese than with a glass of Georgia grown wine?

 

 A special thanks to recent guests Rhonda and David King for sending us these photos! You can check out the entire gallery of images here. Also, thanks to Rhonda for the sweet Trip Advisor review - we hope to see y'all again soon!

 

A great pic of just some of the fine folks at the dairy!
