Blessed are the Cheesemakers
If you have never associated Yorkshire with cheese then think again. Yorkshire’s tradition of cheesemaking stretches back to the 11th Century when the Cistercian monks first cultured Wensleydale.
Festivals in Yorkshire
If you can’t attend the Festival but are going to God’s Own Country, you could try the Malton Food Festival (May and August), the Whitby Folk Festival (August), the Freedom Festival Hull (August / September) or the Ilkley Literature Festival (October).
