Organic milk in the making at McClelland |
In addition to tasting outstanding dairy products at their source, the tour was an opportunity for learning that dairy farming and cheesemaking are cultures with a long history of hard work, routinely surviving on large leaps of faith. I, along with other tour members, came away with an awakened sense of gratitude for both the products and the people who make them. See earlier posts or use these links (McClelland Dairy, Cowgirl Creamery, Achadinha Goat Cheese) for highlights of the locations we visited. And book your Cheese Country Tour before they're sold out!
