The new king helped drive a renaissance in British cheesemaking when the industry was in crisis.
King Charles III is famous for his support of environmental and social causes over the years, but did you know he played a decisive role in the renaissance of traditional artisan cheese in the UK?
"I really believed it would be the end of the great tradition of cheesemaking in the UK once and for all," he says.Mr Hodgson had set up the Specialist Cheesemakers Association to lobby for the interests of artisan producers and the association's work had caught the attention of the then Prince of Wales.
King Charles doesn't tell people what to do, but brings them together to see if they can work out a solution among themselves, he added.Charles invited cheesemakers and cheesemongers to his country pile along with civil servants from the Ministry of Agriculture and government ministers."Do we think it is important to keep these cheeses and traditions going?" Charles asked."So, what are you going to do about it?" was his next question for the room.
Up in the hills of west Wales, I met Patrick Holden and his wife Becky who make a cheddar-style cheese called Hafod using unpasteurised milk from their 75 Ayrshire cows."He saw the need for farmers to add value to their milk," explains Patrick, who says his farm is only viable because he can treble the value of his milk by turning it into artisan cheese.
