Henning's Cheese receives award

Tri-County News

Henning's Cheese of Kiel is one of 20 Wisconsin food artisans one step closer to taking home the top prize as the Gallo family recently announced Wisconsin finalists in the third annual Gallo Family Vineyards Gold Medal Awards.

This nationwide search for the country's top artisanal food producers was created by the Gallo family in 2005 to give back to the artisanal community by recognizing individual businesses who share their commitment to high standards of quality, traditional methods of artisanal food producing and sustainable agriculture.

The finalists have been asked to submit their products to be judged by an esteemed panel of culinary experts who will determine the Grand Prize winners across seven categories.

Additionally, a special "All Artisanal Award" will be presented to a family-owned business that exemplifies artisanal food production and stands as an inspiration for other food industry professionals.

All Grand Prize winners will each receive a $5,000 business development grant.
