Cow Milking + Natural Cheese Making Workshop

$85.00

September 19, 2026
8am - 1pm
Location: Ojo Sarco, New Mexico

Join Heather and Jen for a morning of milking, connecting with our herd of Jersey cows, and experiencing the beauty of fresh milk straight from the source. You’ll have the opportunity to learn about our cows, their care, and the traditions of small-scale dairying while participating in the milking process firsthand.

After milking, Marcey will guide us through an Introduction to Natural Cheesemaking class, where you’ll learn how to transform fresh milk into handcrafted cheese. We’ll explore traditional cheesemaking techniques, enjoy a tasting of fresh milk and cheeses, and celebrate the simple magic of making food by hand. Each participant will leave with a quart of fresh milk and cheese to enjoy at home.


Please wear clothing and shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. We recommend bringing a hat, sunscreen, water bottle, and any snacks you may need. Water will be available, along with dairy products for tasting. Fall temperatures in northern New Mexico can vary throughout the day, so please bring layers to stay comfortable.

Space is limited to six participants.
