Soap Making and Cheese Making Classes
At Stony Knolls Farm
Classes will be scheduled for sometime in October and November.
![]() We start off the day making chevre, a mild, soft goat cheese. |
Once the curds are set, we pour them in cheese cloth and let them drain. |
|
All done and ready to mix some yummy herbs into. |
Of course, making some great mozzarella is also in order! |
|
Nothing like great mozzarella on pizza, lasagna, fresh tomatoes, etc...... |
The last order of the day was some feta! |
|
Getting ready to hang the curds. |
Sliced and salted and ready to sit for a few days to ripen. |
|
Making soap is such great fun! |
Everyone gets into the act! Here Jon is slowly and carefully stirring fat into the lye mixture. |
|
John made us all laugh when he turned a soft bar shaped soap into a nice round ball. |
John's finished product! |
|
Carefully pouring the finished product into molds. |
Just a tad of trimming and soap is ready to age for six to eight weeks. |
| A very special thank you to Kelly and Alex for taking all these great photos! |
