ADELAIDE, SA

For the past 10 years, thousands of cheese lovers have gathered annually in the South Australian capital for the annual Cheesefest, which was this year renamed Ferment the Festival, to celebrate all things cheese and support Aussie producers. A drive east will take you through the rolling Adelaide Hills, where artisan cheesemakers have set up shop in the region’s historic towns, offering boutique products and the opportunity to be a cheesemaker for the day. The area’s rich dairying history is also showcased in a museum exhibition in an old 1940s dairy.
