March can feel like a grey area—not quite spring, but winter still lingers. It’s the perfect time to start refreshing your palate with bright, flavourful bites that bring a little excitement to the table. A well-crafted cheese and charcuterie spread is an easy, affordable way to break the monotony and enjoy quality flavours without stretching your budget.
Local value, unbeatable taste
Founders & Farmers and Cal & Gary’s meats and cheeses make for effortless pairings, whether you’re assembling a quick snack or prepping a charcuterie board before heading out. These locally sourced selections offer great quality at a great price, so you can enjoy indulgent bites without compromise.
Looking to add a little extra punch to your meals? Try tossing cheese into your salads to elevate both taste and texture. A sprinkle of Feta or a shaving of Grana Padano can add a burst of flavour and keep things fresh and interesting.
Monger’s Pick of the Month: Snowdonia Rock Star
This 14-month-aged cheddar from Wales’ Snowdonia Mountains is a rising star in the cheese world. With a smooth, slightly creamy texture, it strikes the perfect balance between a classic Welsh cheddar bite and a subtle sweetness. Ideal for snacking on its own, it also melts beautifully into dishes, making it a versatile addition to your kitchen.
Wrapped in a distinctive purple wax truckle, this cheese was inspired by none other than Prince—and it certainly delivers rockstar flavour.
