The Maine Cheese Festival returns to Manson Park in Pittsfield, Sunday, Sept. 14, 11am to 5pm.
From the The Maine Cheese Guild:
The Guild’s mission is to support and encourage the Maine cheesemaking community. We will do this through development of a collective voice to promote Maine cheese and cheesemakers, educate cheese makers and consumers, coordinate resources and share the joy and art of regional cheeses.
A variety of presentations and hands-on opportunities for all ages including:
- “Cheese and the Supernatural: Folklore, Witchcraft, and Tyromancy” from our friends at Nibblesford Cheese Shop in Biddeford.
- “Keeping Cheese Safe” Renee Blais, Dairy Consumer Protection Inspector, Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry
- “Baking with Cheese,” Patric Moore (Main Street Skowhegan) and Beth Calder (Maine Cooperative Extension Food Science Specialist)
Family Activities
From the magic of Wes Moore to the Mobile Museum of the the Children’s Discovery Museum of Central Maine, we have lots of things for the kids to do!
Music
The lineup includes Kerry O’Leary, Sigrid Sibley and her band, and Patrick Shepard. Come and enjoy the show while eating snacks from the food trucks.
