More about Jim:

Jim Wallace has been our technical resource for a number of years now, teaching and answering our technical questions. He is an expert photographer, a great teacher and a wealth of knowledge. You will be delighted with his classes, they are more technical in scope than Ricki's introductory class but are fine for the cheese maker who is starting out to learn more details of the process.
His search for the traditional cheese making process has taken him to visit master cheese makers both here and abroad to seek out the pre-industrial process. He has also spent many years at the Vermont Institute for Artisan Cheese program with the University of Vermont. This is the knowledge he brings to these classes.
