Tl;Dr: my tip is to go visit your local cheese maker.

We were visiting some friends on Vancouver Island, Canada and decided to go to one of the small cheese makers in our part of the world.

Despite living here my whole life and visiting cheese makers in other parts of the world, I've never actually visited a local cheese maker. We'd driven by the sign a few times but this time, we decided to stop. It was super fun! There were baby cows, including one that was just a few days old.

I couldn't get a good photo of the cheese being made because of the reflection and condensation on the windows from all the cheesey moisture, so it's both a photo of the reflection and the cheese making.

Main takeaway: it's always a good idea to stop at your local cheese maker.

We picked up a blue they call Blue Claire as well as a feta and garlic Fromage Frais.

In case you are curious to see more of their dairy farm and cheeses, here's their web page:
