Praise for Artisan Cheese of the Pacific Northwest

“Tami Parr’s writing about cheese in our region has become the glue that binds our cheesemaking community together. First there was her groundbreaking blog, Pacific Northwest Cheese Project, and now the first definitive guide to cheese of the Pacific Northwest. It is a great read, a great tasting guide, and a great travel guide.”
