From the meeting
At its October 20, 2026 meeting, the Planning Commission considered a CUP amendment for Bongards' Creameries to expand its Carver County plant. The plan adds about 40,000 SF of cheese production space, an 80,000 SF cooler/warehouse, dock changes, road work, utility upgrades, and parking changes. The project is tied to a larger expansion expected to start in Q4 2026 and be fully operational in 2028.
The county noted MPCA and CCWMO permitting work still had to be completed before construction.
