Gain confidence in your cheese knowledge, taste some award winning cheeses, and get your copy of their new comprehensive cookbook signed!
Sue Conley and Peggy Smith met freshman year at the University of Tennessee where, little did they know, a lifelong friendship and infatuation with food would ensue. In 1976 their journey westward began when they drove from the East Coast to San Francisco. Following their arriving to the Bay Area, they became involved in the burgeoning food movement. Smith worked at Chez Panisse, while Conley co-founded Bette's Diner, but Conley and Smith were soon ready for a new challenge. In Tomales Bay they decided to make their own cheese using the milk from neighboring Straus Family Creamery.
Two decades, dozens of awards (including induction into the Guilde des Fromagers), two creameries, four retail stores, and two thousand tons of cheese later, it is apparent that these Cowgirls have helped to pioneer the American artisan cheese. Congratulations on the new book 'Cowgirl Creamery Cooks'!
