Join us for a paddock to plate experience like no other, where soils, science, farming and food come together.
In celebration of World Soil Day, Northern Rivers chef Shane Runciman from Twisted Tucker has crafted a stunning seasonal menu using 100% locally grown produce. As you enjoy the dishes, we’ll have a conversation with the farmers themselves, learning about their connection to soils and how it influences the incredible food they grow right here in the Lismore region. |
After advising and training hundreds of graziers and land managers, Judi decided it was time to put the principles into practice. The purchase of ‘Glen Orton’ - 'the GO' – (pictured above) near Coolatai, NSW in 2011 provided the perfect opportunity to showcase the capacity.
