At LORANTHIVEX, we are more than just a cheese making school; we are a community of passionate individuals united by our love for the art of cheese making. Founded in 2004 in the heart of Wisconsin, we have grown from a small local workshop into an internationally recognized institution.
Our Journey
Our founder, Martha Loran, began her journey with a simple mission: to share her ancestral cheese making techniques with the world. Our school has since become a hub for both beginners and seasoned artisans to hone their skills.
With classes ranging from traditional methods to modern innovations, we pride ourselves on being a versatile learning space. Our expert instructors, who are masters in their craft, ensure that every student leaves with a wealth of knowledge and hands-on experience.
Community & Tradition
Community lies at the heart of what we do. We believe in the power of collaboration and tradition, and as part of our curriculum, we bring together students from diverse backgrounds to share their unique perspectives and ideas.
Every year, we host the Loranthivex Cheese Festival, a celebration of our students' accomplishments and a platform to showcase the incredible variety of cheeses they have created.
