Acknowledgement of Country

We pay our respects to the Traditional custodians of country, to the Elders, past and present. We acknowledge today’s Aboriginal community on all of lutruwita, who are the custodians of this island, and we recognise their continuing connection to land, waters, and culture. Always was, always will be.

FermentationActivation@Harvest
On Saturday 6th August bring your own jar and head on down to a special fermentation-focused Harvest Launceston Community Farmers' Market. From 9am – 11am, create your own Kimchi through a self-guided tour of ferment stations, where enthusiasts explain the science and art of fermentation.

Fire + Ferment@Timbre
In the evening FermenTas invites you to join us at a feast for the senses with some Fire + Ferment at Timbre at Velo, Legana. Distinguished chef Matt Adams is creating an indulgent shared long table banquet of all that is fabulously fired and fermented on a  deep winter August night. Start with mulled cider around the fires to warm up the evening, before moving inside for a banquet of fired and fermented dishes  with matching fermented beverages...aka wine and beer! 
Join the panel conversation to be part of securing the future of our food and how to become an angel investor.

agriCULTURED is the midwinter celebration of the contribution of the agrifoood sector to our culture, community and economy and this year runs from the 3rd to 6th August.  This is just a taste of what is happening this year. See the full program.
