MONROE - The Foreign Type Cheesemaker Association in Monroe is accepting entries to the Green County Fair cheese competition. The entry forms must be in the fair office by 4 p.m. on July 6. Any licensed cheesemaker or cheese factory operator may enter the contest; there is no requirement that one be from Green County. There may be multiple entries by the same cheesemaker per class as long as each is a different type of cheese. All entries not placed in the correct class will be moved appropriately by the judges.
Online contest entry forms can be found at greencountyfair.net/pageserver/fairbook.
All fees should be made payable to the Green County Fair Association. The total fee is $20 per cheesemaker regardless of the number of entries.
For more information, contact Gail Zeitler, executive director, Foreign Type Cheesemaker Association, at gail.zeitler@ftcma.com.
The cheese auction will be at 1 p.m. July 23.
