John went and trained in France.

And through the course of doing all this, it was still his adventure.

Yeah, so 08.

We were about six months into that, into his foray, into looking into it, and we knew that we always wanted to work together.

We can't stand to be apart.

If we take two different cars, we're just like, to work for that five seconds.

We know it's disgusting.

We're made fun of it all the time.

My mother is super embarrassed that I'll say that, but we really like to be together.

And so we wanted to work together, and to be honest, I always thought it would be in my nonprofit.

One day.

Yes, one day.

But instead, we fell in love with the story of cheese and with the cheese makers and the people producing it and this labor of love.

And I actually grew up on a farm and a ranch and with an agricultural background.

And I got away from it as quickly as I could.

And we both met at school in Washington, D.C.

at Georgetown University.

But in a way, I started realizing that romantics are the story of this could be how I could speak to that labor of love.

And that we say that we don't craft cheese, we craft stories.

And so John and I sat down and really looked, hey, is this our opportunity to do something together?
