We talk about the Cowgirl story, how Peg and Sue were focused on sustainability and high-quality dairy here in Marin County, and also about that sense of community with other local cheesemakers. It\u2019s that sort of ethos that all of us mongers are really into. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our shop at Point Reyes is full of a bunch of passionate people: People who are really into the mission and the cheese. If you\u2019re coming to Cowgirl Creamery for a job, you are a big cheese nerd. We try to promote that appreciation for what it took to build the place that we\u2019re employed in. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, the cheese counter overlooking the facility is pretty unique. We are a cheese shop in the same building as a production facility, where we produce Red Hawk.

A lot of cheese plates can be really gorgeous, but it\u2019s tough for a customer to know how to dive into that. In my approach, the cheese isn\u2019t overburdened by other items on the plate. For me, it\u2019s a balance of practicality and looking attractive. The world of cheese is just so aesthetically beautiful, but for people who aren\u2019t connoisseurs, there\u2019s this idea that it\u2019s intimidating. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>culture:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/span> What is the weirdest pairing you\u2019ve tried?<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>HG:<\/strong>&nbsp;The whole idea of <a href=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/cheese-pairings\/how-to-pair-tea-with-cheese\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pairing tea and cheese<\/a>. &nbsp;I don\u2019t know that it\u2019s weird, but it definitely opened my eyes to different possibilities. Washed rind and rooibos is an interesting mix. The rooibos is a little sweet and woody so when I paired it with Von Trapp\u2019s Oma, there was something in there between the nutty washed rind and this earthy, tea.

But you\u2019re here to try something that\u2019s new and really delicious. Even if you don\u2019t have a huge knowledge, revel in the fact that you\u2019re trying something interesting.
