Join us for a delectable and enlightening event tasting artisinal cheeses alongside herbal tinctures* and remedies! If you're a cheese enthusiast or a lover of all things herbalism, this is the perfect opportunity to indulge your taste buds and expand your knowledge.

We'll offer a delightful pairing of 4 unique cheeses, carefully selected to tantalize your palate, paired with 4 thoughtfully crafted tinctures and medicines that embrace the essence of local flora. But that's not all! These herbal concoctions are also designed to aid in the digestion of dairy, making your cheese journey all the more enjoyable.

Allow us to introduce your guides for this delectable adventure: First up, we have Julia Birnbaum, experienced cheese professional and owner of Philly Cheese School. With her vast knowledge and passion for all things cheese, she will lead you through the rich and diverse world of cheese varieties, their origins, and the perfect harmony they create with the herbal tinctures.

Next, we have the clinical herbalist behind Attic Apothecary, Kelly McCarthy, who will unveil the secrets of local flora and the remarkable ways they can enhance your cheese experience. With her expertise, you'll gain a newfound appreciation for the natural world and its incredible power to complement the finest of cheeses.

Prepare to be delighted as Julia and Kelly team up to create a welcoming atmosphere, filled with laughter and cheesy camaraderie. You'll be encouraged to ask questions and share your thoughts as we taste through the plate together as a group.

Whether you're a seasoned foodie or a curious novice, Herbalism & Cheese promises an unforgettable evening of exploration, flavor, and fun. So come with an open mind, a curious spirit, and a hearty appetite - we can't wait to see you there!
