Missouri Farmers Care (MFC) and Midwest Dairy teamed up for a fun and “cheesy” episode for the Stand for Ag podcast. MFC Executive Director Ashley McCarty led the nearly hour-long conversation with Missouri dairy farmer Alex Peterson, Sweet Freedom Cheese owner Jessica Keahey and Midwest Dairy Farmer Relations Manager Stacy Dohle.
The group discussed the Missouri dairy industry, learned the stories behind four Missouri cheeses (while enjoying a sampling of each) and discussed how you can enjoy cheese for any occasion. Missouri cheeses featured were Edgewood Creamery fromage blanc, Shatto Milk cheese curds, Hemme Brothers Brother’s Keeper aged cheddar and Milton Creamery Flory’s Truckle.
