Maple Valley Farm - Maple City, Michigan Leelanau County

I took Angie's basic cheesemaking class this morning along with 8 others, and had a wonderful time. She was clear and concise with her demonstrations and had finished products for tasting.

Along with the class, we had a hay ride tour of their 40 acre farm and a huge lunch, prepared by Angie and I am sure, her girls! (nearly everything served at lunch was produced on their farm!)

Fabulous egg salad on homemade, crusty bread. Tossed salad, fresh tomatoes with homemade pesto, muffins, apple cider, pumpkin cake, and of course, the star of the meal....CHEESE! YUMMO!

Also, fresh, free range eggs for sale, honey, maple syrup, and whatever produce was still available from their gardens.

I went home with 3 dozen eggs and 3 Cuckoo Maran hens to round out my own small flock!

I would encourage anyone looking for true, farm fresh produce, and a wealth of knowledge, to take any or all of the classes offered at Maple Valley Farms. You're sure to go home having made some new friends!
