New Events! Farmer for a Day! B-B-B-BIG News! ![]() NEW EVENT: Farmer for a Day ![]() And for those folks who like more spirits with their cheese and goats, check out our Cheese-y Bus Tours scheduled for the spring. We have yet to announce two more, but tickets are currently on sale for our trip to Pure Luck and Desert Sotol on March 28. Details here. Prefer to stay closer to home, a shorter and more cost-friendly event, and have bubbles with your goat cuddles? Check out our spring Bubbles, Brunch, and (Baby) Goats at Bee Tree Farm series, starting March 21 and running in April and May; these sell out quickly! ![]() NEW EVENT: Cheese-y Kids Class! Introducing our first-ever Cheese-y Kids Class! Our kids' classes are designed for children ages 5 all the way to older kids at heart! Kendall & John along with their two kids Elia (6yo) & Everett (7yo) will be taking the stage as a family leading you through a fun and interactive cheese tasting! Because it's challenging to stay seated for long, this abbreviated tasting is 20 minutes and includes a flight of 4 cheeses. We'll be talking about the difference in cow, goat, sheep, and water buffalo milk cheese. Each cheese will come with a pairing like a jam or honey, and we'll provide some bread. Your $15 ticket also gets you a Green Bee Honey Soda that we'll pair with the cheeses. You are never too young to discover a lifelong love of cheese! Please note, all children must be accompanied by a guardian, and each attendee must be ticketed. Similarly, all adults must be accompanied by a child! (Please purchase together in one transaction, and note that we cannot accommodate unaccompanied minors. For the record, we can barely handle our own children!) Click here for more info or to purchase tickets. Collaboration: Beer, Bread, and Cheese In honor of our upcoming 10th anniversary, longtime partners and friends Easy Tiger is throwing us a celebration party at The Linc! We're teaming up to lead a Bread, Beer, and Cheese Tasting. The event comes with 5 rounds, including some special creations by master baker David Norman. Live music follows. Get tickets here and come celebrate with us! (Even if you can't attend the seated event - or have littles in tow - you can still visit The Linc that night for an a la carte pairing/tasting! Note this event is AT Easy Tiger Linc in north-central Austin. Ticket details here. In the News: John's a Cover Guy! ![]() Let's March - well, RALLY! I've been pretty outspoken about my own struggles with mental health in the past and a particularly scary event that landed me in the hospital and led to some intensive therapy. I always joke that sharing my story is part of my own healing and attempt to claim this past and own it without shame. Well, because of that, I've now been asked to come to speak to a much larger audience - on the lawn of the Austin Capitol at the Women's March this Saturday 1/18 from 12-3! Ah! What an honor! I'm thrilled, excited, nervous, anxious.... all the things. If mental health is one of the issues that are important to you and you're local, come join us! Regardless, I appreciate all good thoughts and vibes. Upcoming Events & Announcing March Tastings! Thank you for keeping our events sold out; we are grateful! FYI that we just posted many classes and tastings through March, so you can get in on the action first - a perk of being signed up for this newsletter (and reading this far!). Check out all our events here. Here's what's coming up in the next few weeks. If you see a sold-out event, email event director Anna to see if there's room in our annex. And remember, you can always view all our upcoming public classes or book your own private tasting. Sun 1/26 - Prosciutto, Salami, and Cheese...Oh My! - 3 tix left!
