Taste Local Cheese for the Holidays (and a Good Cause)
 |
The California Artisan Cheese Guild's "Great Cheese & Good Cheer" event in Oakland aims to do just that. This Sunday in Oakland, you can sample artisanal cheeses, sip local wines and beers, and eat bites provided by Market Hall Food. Participating cheesemakers include familiar names (Cowgirl Creamery, Cypress Grove Chevre, Redwood Hill Farm) and less well known (Shamrock Artisan Goat Cheese, the brand-new Nicasio Valley Cheese).
A ticket to the tasting benefits the guild, which describes itself as "a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting and encouraging the California cheesemaking community."
