📢 Join us for the California Artisan Cheese Guild Annual Membership Meeting!

We're excited to gather on Saturday, April 18 at Silver Penny Farm in Petaluma from 10:00am–1:00pm for our Annual in-person Membership Meeting. We'll kick things off at 10:00am with the business meeting; sharing Guild updates, thoughtful conversation in support of our cheesemakers, an open forum to improve membership benefits, and looking ahead to what's next for the Guild.

Afterward, stick around for a CACG-hosted lunch in the garden. It's a great chance to relax, connect with fellow members, and enjoy a beautiful spring day on the farm!

We hope you'll join us!
