Annie Foos opened the Saint Anne’s Cheese Co. in 2014. Mid-America has had a number of fledgling farms trying to provide the best of goat, cow, and sheep milk products. Her passion is to share their cheese making stories and teach people to make cheese in their own kitchens while helping farmers “Saving their Herd.” Over the past years she has educated thousands of cheese lovers to elevate their cheese game. Her motto is “changing the world one nibble of cheese at a time.
But she realized she needed a way to reach more people and this summer she launched St. Anne’s Cheese Academy, offering classes out of the newly expanded Grist on West 5th Street. There are still 3 classes in the summer session, before she takes a break to start making cheese for the busy fall season.

Join Sueño and Portuguese winemaker Catarina Vieira on Monday, August 22nd for a 5 course dinner paired with 4 wines.
Since purchasing the estate, Caterina invested heavily in the land by completely regenerating the vineyards and building a new state of the art winery. She focuses on indigenous, organic wines that are “elegant and sober, with freshness and minerality.” The most unique wines from the lineup are traditional amphora-aged wines. Amphora are large clay pots. The porous nature of the pots allow for micro-oxidation of the wine, similar to what oak aging does but without the taste of oak.
