Hello from Virginia!

Hello all, and Happy New Year!

I've been a member for a while but just recently decided to stop lurking in the shadows and start getting involved. I'm a small dairy farmer and professional cheese maker and affineur in Virginia, USA. I've gained a lot of knowledge scouring these forums for the past couple years, and hope to contribute to some discussions moving forward.

Right now, my primary interests are focused on Washed Rinds and Soft-Ripened cheeses, as well as affinage of these cheeses. Hopefully I'll get some experimental makes posted to the board in the near future.

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and delicious cheese!

Happy New Year and welcome!

Yo, craftedcurd.  Nice to have you come out of the darkness and into the light!    The input of "those in the cheese business" is ALWAYS appreciated around here as most of us are very serious amateurs lifting ourselves by our own bootstraps and sometimes tripping over our own shoelaces.
