Who am I?
I am Tracey Johnson, author of Cheese Please! and Cheese log. I have been working on the facebook group Learn to make cheese for over 7 years to bring knowledge and support, troubleshooting and explanations to our worldwide cheese hive. I teach cheesemaking classes in person and online and take part in educational demonstrations at local historical sites such as Huble Homestead - showing how cheese would have been historically made.
Cheeseneeds.com and the Facebook group Learn to make cheese were created by my friend and mentor, Chera. In February 2022, I took over the store and continue to source products for the home cheesemaker that I personally would use.
I am developing a range of kits to suit the beginner or advanced cheesemaker and find products that will make cheesemaking easy.
