To kick off our first season dedicated to AOP, listen to dairy farmer Caroline Etter’ story.

For anyone who doesn’t know, the dairy farmers are the guardians of Le Gruyère AOP’s primary ingredient. As well as feeding and milking their cows twice a day, they also coordinate the milk deliveries to the cheese dairy, both morning and evening.

Their profession is a balancing act between automated processes and traditional know-how, which is just as relevant as ever in 2021.
