The Vermont Cheese Council<\/a>, which represents the state’s 56 artisan cheesemakers, hosted its first Vermont Cheese Summit on August 13 and 14. The trade-focused event included a day of visits to farms and creameries such as Von Trapp Farmstead, Jasper Hill Farm, and Vermont Creamery, followed by a day of educational sessions at Shelburne Farms. The Summit offered an opportunity for cheese makers to connect with buyers and network with their peers. It replaced the open-to-the-public Vermont Cheesemakers Festival, which ran for 11 years and was cancelled the last two due to the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
