Whether you’re crafty or simply frugal, there’s really no way to mess up a cheese board so long as you’re using quality ingredients. The Cheese Lady can help. The company, founded in Muskegon, Michigan, has grown into what founder Kathleen Fagan Riegler calls The Cheese Lady Sisterhood, with eight franchises across the state and a ninth expected to open this year.

Cheese to Please
Presentation matters. Not only are Cheese to Please’s gourmet grazing boards packaged in charming, eco-friendly wooden rounds with wooden utensils tied with a brown paper bow, but founder Missy Stines is known to make her deliveries in a classic Volkswagen Beetle convertible with the top down. In November, Stines also introduced virtual grazing board workshops. Sign up for a course in charcuterie design via Zoom for company team-building or as a fun activity for you and a group of loved ones near and far. Cheese to Please,
Grazie Board Co.
A number of Instagram-only charcuterie and grazing table businesses have cropped up around the Detroit area. But one stands out. Unlike other social media-centric companies that provide various catering services, Grazie Board Co. offers boards and only boards. In addition to traditional grazing boards made with blends of cheeses, meats, fresh and dried fruits, olives, nuts, and crackers, clients can also try a brunch board, s’mores board, hot chocolate board, or even a candy board if you’d like.

You can also support this Black-owned business by purchasing a wooden Lit Board complete with a four-piece cheese knife set. Lit Boards,
