In 1818, the Massachusetts Society for the Promotion of Agriculture built the original Agricultural Hall on Dighton Street in Brighton. It served as the hub of the Brighton Fair and Cattle Show, one of the earliest and largest such fairs in the country.
In 1829, "a 17-pound turnip, a 19-pound radish, and a bough on which pears hung like a cluster of grapes were among the outstanding exhibits of that year." In 1844 the building was moved to its present location at the corner of Chestnut Hill Avenue and Washington Street.
Agricultural Hall has vegetable rennet and citric acid on hand for making fresh mozzarella and ricotta cheeses, as well as simple farm cheeses. AH is courting several potential cheese-makers.  In the meantime, we will offer a basic cheese making class for mozzarella and ricotta cheeses.Â
