The Story
Stephanie Beeman stumbled upon her future in a Galway alley while visiting Ireland. That day, she learned that cheese shops are actually a thing and she fell in love with the idea of bringing a similar experience to her hometown.
Prior to starting Central Wedge, Stephanie worked in dairy marketing and her education focused on dairy science, agribusiness and ag journalism. Her culinary experience includes many years of baking and processing local foods at Beeman’s Baked Goods. She also raised cows, goats, sheep and swine as a 4-H and FFA member. With a lifelong love of all things dairy, nothing makes Stephanie happier than meeting a cheesemaker and trying their cheese.
