Below are ways to support our Trail cheese makers and other members during the Covid-19 crisis.
This is a critical time for our nation as we address the challenges presented by the Covid-19 crisis. Top priority is to stay healthy and work to prevent the spread of Covid-19. We also want the small businesses that are unique to our region, and an important part of our economy, to make it through. We encourage you to review the suggestions below and help our Trail members in this time of need.
Buy Direct - check with our cheese makers to see how they're selling their products
Visit the WNC Cheese Trail Cheese Maker page on the Trail website. There you'll find direct links to our local cheese makers. Some are offering online sales w/shipment, others are offering online orders w/pick-up, and some are offering curbside pick up at their creameries.
