Join us as we launch Curd Chronicles, an engaging new mini-series crafted by our cheese community, for our cheese community. This is more than a webinar-it's a celebration of the craft, culture, and curiosity that define California’s vibrant artisan cheese scene.
Each session dives into timely topics, from the transformative power of grass-fed and organic dairying-spotlighting one of our favorite local producers-to the art and science of product development, direct-to-consumer strategies, and the magic of cheese cultures. Whether you're a seasoned monger, a passionate maker, or a cheese-loving enthusiast, these conversations will inspire and inform.
Each session will be hosted live via Google Meet, beginning at 6 pm. Expect about 30–40 minutes of lively, expert-led content, followed by an open forum-your chance to ask questions, share insights, and connect directly with the makers and minds shaping our local cheese landscape.
In cheese, as in life, the joy is truly in the journey. Our speakers aren’t just experts-they’re innovators, risk-takers, and storytellers, eager to share both their successes and their learning moments along the way.
