It is not cheaper at the source here in WI. There are 4 large plants with factory shops within 20 minutes of my house and the price there is the same as at the box store for national brands. The profit margins are so low when selling to corpos that manufacturers can't afford to charge less for direct to consumer sales. Still shop directly with them to keep my money local and out of the hands of Walmart and other corporations.
My area of wi, too.
I go to Amish dairies now, and sometimes the non-Amish side of the road cheese shops attached to smaller farms. it’s not cheaper, but it’s not a large-scale farm, at least, and the money stays more local.
Actually the piggly wiggly here in town has some of the best cheese and meat prices, despite being 2-4x more expensive for literally everything else. (Chicken legs and quarters for 0.35/lb is normal, bulk bacon which is mostly fat (great for cooking) is $0.50/lb, cheese isn’t outright cheap but less than other places). They seem to have worked out some sort of contract with a local dairy; that brand is nowhere else around.
