Savoie, France
Enjoy some online cheese tourism via raw-milk cheese specialist Mons Cheesemongers’ short films (vimeo.com/monscheesemongers). Focussing on artisan cheese-makers in France and Switzerland, the films take you through the process, from cow to cave. Let jangling cowbells transport you to the Vanoise National Park, in the Savoie, where Catherine Richard produces Bleu de Termignon cheese by hand after milking her cows in a 400-year-old parlour. For the full experience order some cheeses from Mons’ online shop and graze while you watch (mons-cheese.co.uk; availability of small-batch cheeses is seasonal).
Oregon, USA
Taking a virtual road trip along one of Oregon’s self-guided Food Trails via Travel Oregon’s YouTube channel is the next best thing to hitting the rural roads of this fertile corner of north-west America in real life. Not sure where to start? Try the Great Umpqua Food Trail to explore wineries, olive groves and orchards in southern Oregon (bounty.thegreatumpqua.com), or the North Coast Food Trail, which winds along an 85-mile stretch of coast, and stops off at bakeries, distilleries and a crab cook-up on the beach along the way (northcoastfoodtrail.com).
