Von Trapp Farmstead Shred It, also known as “Farmer’s Motz,” is the Vermont creamery’s answer to a classic low-moisture mozzarella. This versatile cheese has a mild, milky flavor and a firm yet springy texture that melts beautifully without excess moisture—making it a perfect option for pizza, pasta bakes, panini, lasagna, or any dish that calls for a clean, buttery melt. Unlike fresh mozzarella, Shred It holds its structure well when heated, giving you that satisfying stretch and golden bubbling finish.
The von Trapp family has farmed their Waitsfield, Vermont land since 1959, carrying on their Austrian heritage through regenerative agriculture and farmstead cheesemaking. By producing cheese on-site from their herd’s organic milk, the family preserves both the integrity of their land and the flavor of their milk. Shred It represents their approach to traditional cheese styles with a Vermont twist: simple, clean, and crafted with care.
