Help create a cheese cave
For the sixth straight year, October is Dining Month on OnMilwaukee.com, presented by Concordia University. All month, we're stuffed with restaurant reviews, delectable features, chef profiles and unique articles on everything food, as well as the winners of our "Best of Dining 2012."
Former Milwaukeean Micaela O'Herlihy and her family own and operate a diverse farm in Westby. They have pigs, goats, chickens, orchards, massive vegetable and mushroom gardens, and soon, a cheese cave.
"We are building a deep, dark, dank cheese cave in which to age bloomy rinded masterpieces," writes O'Herlihy – aka "Lady Long Arm" – on her Kickstarter page.
The page was created at the end of September to raise the $5,000 needed to build a functioning space in which to age her cheeses made from her goats' milk.
If you love cheese, family farms, inspiring teenagers or naked babies in superman capes eating bananas, even just a little bit, watch the video posted on this page.
Good luck to Lady Long Arm and family!
