Wegouda

Location: Vancouver

Since 2021, Wegouda has been making cheese & charcuterie boxes. We believe cheese makes the world go round; the only thing flat is the cookies and crackers we sell.

We ensure that each box is fresh, seasonal and personalized to your preferences. What sets Wegouda apart is our dedication to sourcing the finest ingredients; organic and local whenever possible, and ensuring that each bite reflects our passion for bringing people together. From carefully curated cheeses to artisan-cured meats, every element in our boxes and boards is a testament to our uncompromising standards. Crackers and biscuits are always served on the side because… nobody likes soggy crackers.

“Shopping local keeps the heart of a community beating. Every dollar spent locally supports someone’s dream, a family, and the character of our town. When you choose to support small businesses, you’re not just buying a product—you’re helping build a place where people feel connected, seen, and proud of where they live.” – Amy Eawark, The Sweet Magnolia
