A Different Kind of California Start-Up: Ewetopia
Sirene (front) and Philosopher (back) feta-style cheese from Ewetopia.
Ewetopia is a start-up. Not in computers or chips. But cheese.
Made with sheep’s milk, of course.
Hence the cute name.
Andrea Mongini and husband Craig Meadows own a veterinary practice. If that didn’t keep them plenty busy already, they also own a sheep dairy farm in Denair, CA.
They just embarked on creating their first cheeses in partnership with one of my favorite producers, Fiscalini Cheese Company of Modesto, maker of the award-winning bandage wrapped cheddar.
