Learn how to make a simple, delicious cheese in your own kitchen. Berkshire Botanical Garden’s own Chris Wellens will cover equipment, supplies, and basic techniques used in making nearly all types of cheese. While making 3 types of cheese, fresh from start to finish, an emphasis will be on making a unique cheese unlike any at your local grocery store. After enjoying the fresh-made cheeses, each person will take home instructions and a set of ingredients to make a batch or two at home. This workshop is for beginners, and participants will learn by doing.

Chris Wellens is the Director of Education at BBG and is an avid cheesemaker at home. He has taught the art of cheesemaking to adults, children, and educators throughout New England. He also teaches on a wide variety of other topics involving the environment, gardening, beekeeping, and agriculture.
