Cheesemaking Classes...The Valley Shepherd Creamery cheese making classes have become a popular gift item and a wonderful day spent on the farm working with us to make cheese. You may reserve space in one of our classes by purchasing a class seat on our online Sheep Shoppe (see link below), printing a copy of the reservation form and mailing it with a check or or calling 908-876-3200 x22. Please do not assume you are in until we confirm because things are moving too fast for us.
Classes include a private tour of the Creamery hosted by the owners, as well as lectures and cheesemaking in the dairy. Luncheon will be served at the Creamery's porch.
Each student will make an individual handmade cheese wheel (appx 1Kg) and mark the wheel for future retrieval. The wheel will then join other wheels in the Valley Shepherd Creamery's cheese aging cave. After 60-75 days, the wheels will be available for pickup at the creamery. For picking up, please call us at least 3-4 days in advance of a weekend pickup. We cannot run up to the cave on a saturday morning when there is a line at the shop. Contact us to reserve space in a future class or to give a cheese making class as a gift! $145 price of class includes tour, cheese tasting, luncheon on the farm's porch and your own cheese wheel. Space is very limited (20 max/class) so please reserve early. Our cancellation or re-scheduling policy requires notice one week in advance of the scheduled class.
