This largely silent film begins with a welcome message from Oregon governor Mark Hatfield, speaking on the cheese industry in Oregon and the forthcoming October Cheese Festival. From there, the film shows the entire process of making cheese, beginning with milking cows, transporting milk, and deploying a combination of machinery and human labor to manufacture cheese for shipping and sale. Rose Valley Butter and Cheese (Tillamook, Oregon), and the Mount Angel Cooperative Creamery (Mount Angel, Oregon) are both depicted in the film.
