Queso Diego February 2015 Meeting Announcement

Hello Queso Diegans,

After 2 amazing QD parties in December and January, we are back at our homebase of City Farmers Nursery for our February meeting.

Tuesday’s Meeting topic will be “Other than Cheese Ferments” presented by our own Larry Stein.

Come and learn about Kefir, Greek Yogurt, Kombucha, Jun, and More. Learn easy ways you can make these in your own kitchen.

Larry has been hard at work on crafting these “other than cheese ferments” in his home kitchen and will have a variety of samples to share. There might even be some cultures to take home (well, if you promise to bring some back to share of course). 😉

Since many of these are liquid samples, I’d recommend bringing your tasting glass to cut down on those pesky plastic cups (and trash).

Sharing is Caring. As always, bringing delicious things to share is always promoted.

The meeting will be held at 6:30pm on Tues, February 17th at City Farmers Nursery (http://www.cityfarmersnursery.com). Map of parking and the meeting location: https://quesodiego.org/?attachment_id=453

Nate’s Garden Grill on the grounds of City Farmers Nursery is now open, so consider stopping by to grab a beer before or after the meeting. They have a great menu of fresh, local food and an extensive draft beer list.

Please RSVP using the link below as soon as possible so that we can get an accurate head count:
