Anne was a champion for the American artisan cheese movement. She taught us about milk, animal husbandry, cheese care and why it is critically important to the health of our bodies and the land we live on, to support small family farms. She believed that American Farmstead cheese makers were creating product that was diverse and complex enough to compete with the long standing tradition of needing to import quality cheese. She broke the mold. Believed the opposite of the current state was possible. She delivered cheese to restaurants all over New York City by bike! Her influence was immeasurable in the cheese community and industry alike. After her passing, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.annesaxelbylegacyfund.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Anne Saxelby Legacy Foundation<\/a> was started. It is an incredible grant program that works to give youth real life internship opportunities on farms.

Where to begin. I would pour money into our education system. I would promote a system where we valued books and conversation. Where we could express different opinions respectfully and with integrity. I would teach humans how to hold space constructively for rejection. We can\u2019t survive if we can\u2019t find a way to live in harmony with each other. Education and Healthcare care (including therapy) should be accessible to ALL.

I am extremely fortunate I did not open in 2019 as originally planned. It has been a huge advantage to enter owning a business aware of the worst case scenario. What does an emergency look like? How do you pivot quickly. How do you take care of your people and community? Coming into business when prices were high and staffing short started us off in a proper mindset. If you were not used to that, having your entire business model get wiped away over night would be catastrophic. Any small business owners that survived all of that and continue to thrive are incredible and deserve our relentless support.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">What is your favorite season in the Driftless &amp; why?<\/span><\/strong><br \/><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Fall.

It simply takes longer to order a few wedges of cheese or some sliced salami, turkey or prosciutto. On the flip side, the quality of what you are buying is far superior. Buy only as much as you need and taste before you buy. Ideally you would pop into the shop once or twice a week and get what you need for a few days or a week at a time. Customers can always place orders over the phone and have there goodies ready for pick up on busy days!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">By Sarah Clemens<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/noblerind.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-11539 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/driftlessareamag.com\/unicdn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Driftless-Area-Mag-VISIT-WEBSITE.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"201\" height=\"54\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you read any good books?To be honest- I mostly read cookbooks.
