Fairfield Cheese Co. Celebrates Four Years Sat. May 4

Four years ago, Laura Downey and Chris Palumbo combined their love for cheese and their entrepreneurial spirit and created Fairfield Cheese Company, a bustling cheese shop located in the heart of Fairfield. To celebrate four years of artisanal and farmstead cheese, charcuterie and fine foods, and their popular cheese school, Fairfield Cheese Company will be sharing their anniversary with their customers on Saturday, May 4th. Laura, Chris and their staff, as well as their mascot Meg the Cow, invite their fellow cheese enthusiasts to join them for a special event dubbed CASE TAKEOVER.
 
For the celebration, Columbia Cheese and Jasper Hill Cellars will take over Fairfield Cheese Company’s cheese cases and fill them with their selections. “It will be a really fun day,” says Laura. “Chris and I get to step back, mingle with our customers and let the representatives from Columbia and Jasper Hill be cheesemongers for the day.”

“The selections in the case are going to be terrific, and the representatives will be able to really delve deep into the ins and outs of their cheeses, the stories behind them and be available to answer questions,” added Chris. 

In addition, the event will feature cheeseburger sliders from Saugatuck Craft Butchery and a beer tasting from a local CT brewery from 1-4pm. TAKEOVER begins at 11am.
