FREE Bonus Gourmet Item with Every Subscription Order (avg $10 value)
November's Meet the Makers Quarterly Subscription Box is a filled to the brim with star California cheese that will shape your Thanksgiving cheese board. The best part? You get the chance to meet the cheesemaker live on Zoom!
Cowgirl Creamery makes cheese with heart. In 1997, they started with a dream shared between two college friends and business partners, Sue Conley and Peggy Smith: To celebrate organic practices and spotlight the craftsmanship of local sustainable agriculture in Sonoma counties. Today, they are carrying the torch of the food revolution that started in their backyard. Organic. Farm-to-Table. Delicious, award-winning cheese. It’s in their DNA. And it defines their famous creations, including the beloved triple cream Mt Tam.
Featuring four different cheeses, you'll receive a well-rounded spectrum of the Cowgirl experience for your Thanksgiving table: the classic triple cream brie Mt Tam, its funky, washed rind sister Red Hawk, the alpine-style semi-firm Wagon Wheel, and the snackable, cider-washed Hop Along.
One of Cowgirl's esteemed cheesemakers will be joining us live to discuss their rich history and cheesemaking processes.
The live Zoom date and time is still TBD (November is far away!), though we know it will be the same week it ships. A Zoom link invitation will be emailed post-purchase and a recording will be emailed to everyone post-event.
Place your order by Sunday, November 15th. The November box will ship Tuesday, November 17th.
*A Zoom invitation link will be emailed post-purchase and a recording will be emailed to everyone in case you aren't able to make the live event.
FAQ
How does the quarterly subscription work?
Subscribe to receive a new selection of cheeses from one maker, four times a year. You'll be able to cancel, pause, skip, or modify within 48 hours of the shipment of your upcoming order. For prepaid subscriptions, you are able to cancel after the prepaid duration.
Once you are signed up, you'll receive an email giving you access to your unique subscription portal, so you can review all your shipping and billing information and your next order date.
What is fantastic about our quarterly cheese subscription is you get the unique opportunity to Meet the Maker live on Zoom. A recording will be emailed for those who cannot attend.
What is the quarterly shipping schedule?
Since our quarterly program highlights one maker per shipment, and is accompanied by a live Zoom event, we have a fixed schedule for all shipments. Upon request (given 48 hours notice), we can delay a box's delivery, or we can skip a shipment that doesn't work with your schedule (which means your fourth shipment will be the following quarter). The current shipping schedule is:
1. November 18th, 2025
2. December 15th, 2025
3. March 10th, 2026
4. June 16th, 2026
Live Zoom dates are finalized closer to the shipping date, at the discretion of the cheesemaker. Cheesemakers are busy so we work around them! :-)
How does the gift subscription work?
Our Gift "Meet the Makers" Quarterly Subscription is the perfect way to gift a year of cheese. No pricing is ever included, and the gift subscription expires after the prepaid duration. By providing the recipient's name and email in the product form, we'll be able to invite them to upcoming live Zoom events, and notify them of upcoming orders. Gift subscriptions ship on the fixed schedule of the quarterly program, unless otherwise requested.
How is the cheese packaged for freshness?
We take great care in ensuring your cheese arrives fresh and flavorful. Each cheese box is expertly packed with temperature-controlled insulation and ice packs to maintain the perfect conditions during shipping. Additionally, we use sustainable and breathable cheese paper to help your cheeses age naturally while preserving their taste and texture. Cheese is shipped to arrive within 1 to 3 days to preserve quality and integrity.
