Store 1

a cornerstone of Hooksett history

The Robie Store has been operated by the Robie family of Hooksett since 1887. It is the oldest continuously operating business in the area and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. The store flourished at least in part due to its location: close to main roads, the river, mills, and the railroad. The original building had a dock on the river to receive merchandise until the arrival of the railroad in 1842.

Lee Robie along with his son Tim officially launched and opened the Robie Store on August 20, 2023. The store carries a full line of Robie Farm meats, cheeses, and raw milk along with a full kitchen serving breakfast and lunch. The Robie Store is located at 9 Riverside Street in Hooksett, New Hampshire.

facts about our

farmstead cheese

Our farmstead cheese is made in small batches with Robie Farm raw milk. Our cheeses are made from GMO-free milk from our Normande cows which produce the best components for making cheese. Once the milk from our cows is properly processed in the cheese room it is pressed into the molds which are then soaked in a sea-salt brine. This gives the cheese a perfect amount of salt and forms the rind, which protects the cheese during aging. The wheels are then removed from the brine and placed on wooden racks in our cheese cave for a period of 12 to 24 months. Aging is where the “magic” happens as the enzymes produced by the cheese cultures slowly break down the cheese and create the complex flavors we all know and appreciate in cheese.

facts about our

raw milk & cream

Raw milk is milk that comes directly from a cow’s udder, and is not pasteurized or homogenized and has superior nutrition and significant health benefits over pasteurized milk. Raw milk contains greater bioavailable nutrients than pasteurized milk, as well as a wide array of beneficial enzymes and probiotics which are known to benefit the immune system and gastrointestinal tract. Along with our Normande cows we keep several Jersey cows in our milking herd as they produce more pounds of milk per pound of body weight than any other breed, and their milk is high in butterfat. The proper ratio of Normande to Jersey cows in our herd enables us to produce the highest quality GMO-free milk and cream.
