Cheese Podcast Episode 14 – Mark Brown from Purple Pear Farm

October 11, 2013 @ 06:00 By Gavin Webber Leave a Comment

My guest this episode is Mark Brown from Purple Pear Farm at Maitland, NSW Australia. He makes cheese on their organic 14 acre farm to feed the WWOOFers (Willing Workers on Organic Farms) who regularly visit and work on the property.

We chatted about where he sources his milk, what cheeses he makes each week, and what he does with it. He also goes on to talk about his successes and challenges regarding home cheese making over the years.

More information about Mark and his wife Kate and all the services available at the farm can be found at www.purplepearfarm.com.au.

Kate also writes a great blog which can be found at http://purplepearorganics.blogspot.com.au/.  I am a regular visitor to Kate’s blog, which is great fun to read.

Pop on over to Little Green Cheese to listen to this entertaining episode.
Enjoy!
