Cheese Making Workshop - August 2021

In this third workshop of it's kind this season, you will learn from Tanja how to turn 5 L of milk into a family staple; a hard cheese that ripens in only two weeks. It's mild enough to please the kids and has enough flavour to become a favourite.

In this two hour session we will take the myth out of cheese making and show you how easy it is to create your very own delicacy. Give it a go!

No previous experience or fancy equipment required.

Our cheese making workshops fill up very fast, so register your spot early! Limited to 12 participants.

This workshop is proudly sponsored by the Riverside Community Trust. Please contact Tanja (education@riverside.org.nz) to discuss sponsorship options if you are struggling to meet the workshop fee.
