For CNIEL it is free publicity. Putting in for them trivial amount ensures that it happens. No-brainer. Nothing wrong with accepting their money as everyone gains from the deal. Win- win-win situation. Cheers, Peter

We have reached 92% of our first goal. We're receiving huge supports and an amazing coverage from medias. This is just awesome. In the latest news, we just received a 1 200€ pledge from the CNIEL https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centre_national_interprofessionnel_de_l%27%C3%A9conomie_laiti%C3%A8re the organisation promoting dairy products in France. Just so you know, we did not asked them to. We're really happy from this unexpected support :) Thanks also to everyone here who helped spread the word and allowed us to go this far. Now, we have to reach the 9 000€ goal so we can produce a documentary about how cheese is made.
