Cheesemaker Ambassador Sponsors
Beehive Cheese Co. was founded in 2005 when brothers-in-law Tim Welsh and Pat Ford traded their grinding commute and laptops for quiet pre-dawn mornings sitting with 500 gallons of farm-fresh milk carefully mixing and warming it for hours to develop their unique cheese. They fell in love with the natural rhythms of making cheese the old fashioned way. The long days of polishing their recipe and the months spent waiting with an artisan’s patience for wheels to ripen to perfection have made their cheeses some of the best in America. |
Marin French Cheese Company also known as The Cheese Factory and Rouge et Noir, is not just the oldest cheese manufacturer in the country, but a vacationers and day trippers destination as well as a unique part of American History. Marin French has produced hand crafted Artisan soft ripened cheese since 1865. |
