Goats on 5th, Part 2 – Lactic Cheeses – 11am-1pm
In our second cheese making course, we will focus on cheeses made using rennet, both meso- and thermophilic cultures, and how to press cheeses properly. These basic skills are necessary if you wish to make more advanced cheeses using mold, bacteria, and other techniques such as a washed rind cheeses.
Class space is limited. Once class fills, a waitlist will start. If the waitlist gets long enough, there is a possibility a second class will be added.
Saving the Seasons – Pickling Vegetables – 2-4pm
Learn about preserving the season’s bounty with another homestead art – pickling! We will learn that pickles are not just made from cucumbers. Using various seasonal ingredients from our local farms we will capture summer in a jar through pickling.
