Throughout the weekend, participating restaurants and cafes will offer special Harvest Food Trail menus, showcasing the region’s seasonal produce.

At the Bangalow Bowlo on Saturday, 4 May, the Twomey Dispute Lawyers Harvest Hub is a vibrant marketplace bursting with local producers eager to share their stories and products. 

‘The Harvest Hub is a fantastic opportunity to connect directly with the people who are shaping the Northern Rivers food scene’ says Lucy Ashley, Harvest Food Trail Manager. 

‘Its a chance to discover new favourites, stock your pantry with local goods, and learn about the passion that goes into every bite.’ 

The Harvest Food Trail offers a mix of free-to-visit locations and ticketed events that tend to sell out fast, to explore the interactive map, plan your route, and discover all the participating venues, go to https://www.northernriversfood.org/harvest-food-trail/.
