Geeks’ Hour: Sustainable Cheesemaking

About this event

Innovative ways to help save the planet

Quality and sustainability are core pillars in Paxton & Whitfield’s philosophy, ensuring you receive the best cheeses, produced with sustainability in mind and ensuring waste is at a minimum.

Join Tom Richardson, Paxton and Whitfield Jermyn Street Manager, as guides you through a tasting of five magnificent cheeses that are exemplary examples in sustainable artisan cheese making.

Tom is not only an expert cheesemonger, he is an Environmental Management Graduate and will give you an insight into the environmental issues facing the British farming industry and why eating cheese could have a positive sustainable impact if you choose your cheeses carefully.

As well as tasting, you will learn about the cheeses, and their makers, who have used a variety of different sustainable practices in both their farming and cheesemaking.
