The Northern Rivers Food Harvest Food Trail, to be held on the weekend of 1–2 May 2021, is guaranteed to be a very Northern Rivers experience, reflecting and celebrating the distinctive provenance of our region’s food. The Trail will offer lots of wonderful eating and drinking experiences; being jam-packed with our most-acclaimed restaurants, producers, farmers and growers.

The Northern Rivers Food Harvest Festival has run each year since 2016. Owing to the COVID lockdown last year the festival was forced to cancel. This year Northern Rivers Food have announced an exciting evolution and have returned to deliver a highly-anticipated Harvest Food Trail self-drive event across the Northern Rivers on the weekend 1–2 May.

With 26 food and beverage participants, including two tours, an abundance of seasonal farm-gate produce, three-course dining, grower talks, classes, distillery tours, tasting sessions, talks on regenerative farming and demonstrations from the region’s most celebrated chefs, the Northern Rivers Food Trail weekend is packed with both phenomenal food experiences and food for thought.

You can view the map and participant offerings online now to plan your Food Trail over two tasty days.

Please note ticketed events are expected to sell out quickly so don’t delay in purchasing tickets to your favourite events.
