The virtual course will be taught by Max Melvin, one of our senior cheesemongers and educators. He has written and presented many cheese workshops that take a multidisciplinary approach to this fascinating subject. They take in his interests in science, politics, philosophy and education. He is especially interested in the science of milk and cheese, and makes our beautiful homemade cultured butter.
