Help Vermont Cheesemakers Make Magic!
Just like sunlight turns grass into milk, then into cheese, your support transforms into resources and services for our Vermont cheesemakers.
Corporate Sponsorship
Corporate sponsorships for 2025 seasonal underwriting and specific initiatives are now available! We are looking for partners who want to invest alongside us into the future of food – specifically the cheese industry and the dairy farmers behind it.
To learn more, contact our Development Coordinator Chelsea Johnson at chelsea@vtcheese.com.
Individual Giving
Show support for our 40 Cheesemaking Principle members by giving a gift to support VCC’s operating, including marketing efforts, member services, business support resources. This is a great way to help cheesemakers do what they do – easier.
Please note that while individual giving to our operational fund is mission-critical to VCC’s success, these gifts are not tax-deductible.
Educational Fund
Our educational programs serve both cheesemakers and the greater community by bringing high-quality courses, classes, and workshops to cheesemakers, to help them hone their craft, and to the general public, to learn more about Vermont cheesemaking, dairy farming, and agricultural sustainability.
Please note these funds are restricted exclusively to education, and can not support other initiatives like marketing or member services for cheesemakers.
The VCC Education Fund is fiscally sponsored by the Tiny Seed Project, Inc. 501(c)3. (EIN 84-2097757). Your donation is tax-deductible.
