Important Announcement:

MA Cheese Festival 2026

The Big Cheese is Heading Back to the Farm! Get your crackers ready and your palate primed—the Massachusetts Cheese Guild Annual Festival is officially coming to Stone Cow Brewery at Carter & Stevens Farm this June 2026!

Imagine this: a crisp farm-brewed ale or wine in one hand, a wedge of award-winning local brie in the other, and the rolling hills of Barre, MA, as your backdrop. It’s basically the "Grate-est" day of the year.

What’s Aging?

We’re currently curing the final details to make this year’s festival more "sharp" than ever. Expect:

The Cream of the Crop: Local Massachusetts and New England cheesemakers.
Perfect Pairings: Fresh pours from Stone Cow Brewery and more
Education Sessions: Elevate your "curd nerd" status with our education sessions featuring exclusive deep-dives into the art of cheesemaking, and guided pairings led by the Commonwealth’s premier masters.
Farm Vibes: Live music, fresh air, and serious curd-nerd energy.

Stay Sharp: We’re still aging this event to perfection. Check back soon for ticket releases, vendor lineups, sponsorship and volunteer opportunities, and more!

We appreciate your support of the MA Cheese Guild. It is our mission to sustain and grow the artisan cheesemaking community in Massachusetts.

Sincerely,
The Massachusetts Cheese Guild
