NOOSA SLOW FOOD
VEGETABLE FARM VISIT
To the QANTAS ‘BEAN KING’
If you enjoy the good fresh
flavour of vegetables and yearn for a trip to the country,
then this Slow Food tour is for you. We have hired a bus
to take you on a visit to Steve Waugh’s Vegetable
Farm, in a beautiful valley west of Gympie.
The 45 seater bus leaves
from the ‘J’ at 9.30am prompt , on Monday (Steve’s
only day off) 20th September and will return by 4.30pm approx.
Steve and his wife Trena
are well know identities at their Vegetable stall, every
Sunday, at Noosa Farmers Market. The winners of several
Champion awards for Home Vegetable Growers at Gympie Show,
the jewels in their combined crowns are Steve’s long-standing
contract to supply green beans to Qantas airlines and Trena’s
skill in growing heirloom tomatoes.
After a morning tea of Trena’s
delicious vegetable cakes, we will tour Steve’s two
farms, then enjoy a Barbecue lunch, prepared by our Convivium
Leader, Blue Angel owner-chef, Daniel Mosedale, accompanied
by a selection of delicious vegetable salads, prepared by
the committee.
For dessert, we are inviting
members to participate by bringing their favourite Ginger
cake, slice, biscuit or Ginger dessert, to be judged then
enjoyed by everyone.
This will be a BYO day.
BYO picnic chairs or rugs, plates, mugs, cutlery, glasses
and drinks, plus your Ginger Competition entry. And wear
‘sensible’ shoes! Numbers are limited so book
