Taste cheesy stuff, earn points, and win cheese and cheesy swag.
Banish the brisk and embrace Wisconsin’s cold-weather season with the Cheese Passport to Green County Swiss-consin! It’s your delicious reason to get out, get cozy and get rewarded.
This winter, Green County invites you to sip, savor and yodel your way through southern Wisconsin with a mobile-exclusive passport packed with cheesy stops, spicy bites and toasty pairings. When the winter winds blow, there’s no better remedy than diving into melty fondue, sizzling raclette and buttery-crisp grilled cheese sandwiches.
Hot Stuff for Cold Days
What better way to heat things up than with spicy Buffalo chicken mac ’n’ cheese, wood-fired pizza layered with molten mozzarella, soup in a bread bowl topped with shredded Parmesan or deep-fried Cheddar curds hot from the fryer? Pair it all with a glass of wine, a mug of beer or a sip of local bourbon, because that’s how we roll in Green County.
The Cheese Passport is your guide to the coziest corners of communities like Monroe, Brodhead and New Glarus. Simply “check in” at participating restaurants, pubs, cheese shops, breweries, wineries and distilleries. Every check-in earns you points toward fun prizes and exclusive cheesy swag. Or save points for a chance to win big in the final drawings— think fondue dinners and build-your-own custom cheese board kits. The best part? No app to download! Just sign up, and start checking in right from your phone.
