A Message from the Executive Director

Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association is growing – both in services and membership -- and it’s all because of our members. To navigate a turbulent economy and challenges with workforce, you’ve spoken clearly to WCMA about how our team can work to assist your businesses.

The results are right here on our website – a members-only directory offering an in-depth dive into our membership from coast to coast. An overview of our services, a calendar of our events, and a list of the free member committees and groups you can join to plug in with your colleagues and the Association team.

WCMA grows and pivots to meet your current needs, so stay in touch! 

Sincerely,

John T. Umhoefer
