Join us for Day Three of this Cheesemaking Bootcamp. You’ll get hands-on experience learning about the tools and techniques used to make a wide variety of advanced level cheeses including affinage techniques. We’ll make several different styles of cheese while sampling them along the way, and you’ll take home numerous cheesy creations of your own. You’ll leave knowing the terminology and basic techniques needed to branch off and try other recipes as well. Lunch with wine, coffee and dessert (and lots of cheese!) will be served.
