Making Fresh Cheese Two Ways
2026-06-18 18:00 - 19:30 | Bluff Country Co-op Community Room, 121 W. 2nd St., Winona, MN, 55987
Join us in making two of the fastest fresh cheese options in one class! For one option, we will learn how to make Farmer’s Cheese. This cheese has a fresh, soft curd and a wide variety of finishing options, and can be served sweet or savory. As part of the class, each attendee will get to take home a container of this cheese to enjoy. The other cheese option we will make during our time together is an all-natural, Velveeta-like variety. Learn how to create a homemade and healthier version of a childhood favorite that you can feel good about sharing with your friends and family. This cheese will be served fresh and warm in class with tortilla chips.

As part of these efforts, from July 7-August 7, Bluff Country Co-op is seeking donations of any youth toys that you may have and no longer want, that are clean, in excellent condition, and ready to share with the community. Please leave your donations in our collection crate at the service counter.
Donations will be accepted from July 7, 2026 – August 7, 2026.
