All other events will have location listed in their description! Always in the Tulsa Metro area. Private events can be held at our shop (depending on group size), your home, office, or any other preferred venue.

What can I expect at your Thursday Tastings?

Our Thursday Tastings are held in the kitchen of our tiny shop at 1207 S Lewis Ave. We love getting to invite you back into our working kitchen & show you behind the scenes of our operations! Tastings are family style around our prep tables, because our core value is bringing fine provisions to everyone & celebrating food and how it brings us together! Our kitchen can hold 15-20 comfortably and is standing room only, but we do have a few bar stools available if you need it. We will guide you through all pairings & provide a printed menu for you to follow along as we taste. While these tastings are casual, we please ask that you are respectful of all other attendees & us, your hosts! Please refrain from being loud or disruptive while we are presenting, we promise to leave you plenty of time between bites to chat! All tastings are 21+

What can I expect at your board workshops?

Our cheeseboard building workshops are a super fun way to get hands on & learn a new skill! Our team will guide you step by step as you create your own charcuterie board, following the 6 step process we use everyday at our shop. We will show you how to prepare & style different cheeses, charcuterie meat, & complete the board with fresh fruit, dried fruit, nuts, chocolates, etc. During the workshop we will tell you about the cheeses you are working with, tips for shopping for a cheeseboard, wine pairing tips, & more! Workshops are great to learn a new skill, up your hosting game, or just a fun night out with friends. These workshops usually take about 1-2hrs, collaborative workshops can take a bit longer! Snacks & drinks provided. Cheeseboard workshops are all ages, but you will be using knives so keep that in mind!
