Customer Testimonial: “I bought my boyfriend the cheese-making class for his birthday and he absolutely LOVED it. When we got to the farm, Kathy was warm and friendly and extremely informative. We started with milking the cows and went through the process of making both cheddar cheese as well as mozzarella. Kathy walked us through each step in detail and it was really a lot of fun! Kathy gave us a bunch of resources so my boyfriend could get started on trying to make his own cheeses. We were given samples of cheeses and yogurt to try as well as given some to take home with us. It was an excellent adventure! In addition to the cheese making class, it was just amazing to see the farm and how it works as well. We hope to come back in the Spring with the kids! Thank you so much Kathy!!”   cheesemaking-16
