RAW CHEEZE!
Fall is just around the corner, and besides all those beautiful fall colours and beautiful fall veggies, it’s also time to start the cheeze again! I start them only in the fall , and then stop in the late spring due to where I keep all the cheezes to age. So for now unfortunately I make these great cheeze only in the cooler climate!
Took me many years but I have managed to create some great raw aged cheeze! So as soon I have some ready I will be letting you all know.
I also supplied a link below where you can see more cheeze I make….so check out my facebook page “health nuts cheeze” for more information.
