Date: Saturday, October 18
Time: 10am – 4pm
Location: Quiet Creek Herb Farm, Brookville, Jefferson County

Got Milk? In this workshop you will learn the basics for making cheese with just a few ingredients and your kitchen stove. Participants will make hard and soft cheeses from start to finish including cheddar, mozzerella, ricotta, formigine (a great spreadable cheese), and cream cheese. We will also learn to make yogurt and kefir. The Orners will demonstrate smoking and adding herbs to cheeses, proper sanitation and storage methods. Participants will take home starter culture for formigine, yogurt, and kefir. A tasty home-grown lunch will be prepared by the Orners with produce from their farm.

Claire and Rusty Orner are stewards of the non-profit educational facility Quiet Creek Herb Farm and School of Country Living, a 30-acre farm where they raise vegetables, fruits, herbs, and edible and cut flowers.
