THE Sunshine Coast’s rich produce and cuisine will be celebrated during The Curated Plate festival between July 26-August 4.
A focus of this year’s festival is the opportunity for visitors to experience native ingredients produced locally on the lands of the Kabi Kabi and Jinibara peoples.
The 10 day ‘foodie lover’ program has been carefully developed through collaboration between local producers, suppliers and businesses, united in their passion to not only tell their unique stories through food but enrich the narrative through experiences.
Local events include Yanalla Farms; Mad Hatter’s Tea Party (July 26); Hinterland Producers Lunch at The Long Apron Restaurant Montville (July 27); Seasonal tastings at the Falls Farm Mapleton on (July 27) and ‘Simply Wine’ at Spill Wine Maleny, also on (July 27).
Maleny Botanic Gardens & Bird World will launch its new native bush tucker gardens to coincide with The Curated Plate.
The gardens have been curated in partnership with the Jinibara Peoples Aboriginal Corporation (JPAC) and Brush Turkey Enterprises.
The Bush Tucker Experience will be held on Sunday August 4, and will enable guests to view bush food plants and talk to local rangers and producers.
This event will encourage visitors to learn more about the vast array of bush tucker foods and their use while taking in the spectacular Glass House Mountains backdrop.
