From milking to plate, what are the secrets behind turning milk into cheese? Become apprentice cheese-makers for the duration of this workshop, and leave with your own cheese ... to taste!
For children aged 6 to 12.
During a fun workshop, children discover and carry out all the stages of cheese making by themselves. But in fact...where does the milk come from? What does PDO mean? What utensils are used to make it? Why do some cheeses have holes? What senses do we use to taste them? When you leave, you will know everything about Savoy cheeses.

Children are welcome only, and must not be accompanied by their parents.

Reservations must be made with the Maison du Fromage Abondance on 04.50.73.06.34 -...
