This Week at the Co-op:
Thursday Night: Cheese Tasting
Thursday,
Sept 29th from 5:30pm - 6:30pm.
NEW! Thursday nights are all about cheese. This Thursday, we're
talking milk. Cow's milk. Goat's milk. Sheep's milk. All of them
make delicious cheeses with decidedly different tastes. Resident
cheese expert Jonathan will offer you samples of each so you can
learn how to identify the differences. Jonathan is freshly returned
from training at the famous
Murray Cheese Class in New York. If you've got cheese questions,
he's got answers.
Friday Night: Live Music + Wine and Beer Tasting
Friday,
Sept 23rd from 6pm - 8pm.
Live Music: 6-8pm
We will be hosting our weekly Friday Night live music from
6-8pm. India Cain & Keith Allen (Folk) brings their blend of
60's & 70's inspired folk music with bluegrass influence. You don't
