Forage & Feast Food Adventures

Forage and Feast is about meeting, foraging, exploring and eating. We bring people together to sample locally grown and produced food and award-winning Central Otago artisanal products. Behind the local food, home-grown food, wild food and fresh food lie the unique stories of our people. Our mission is to share our local food stories with our guests -be they local or from far away shores.

Our local food stories are rich with flavour, but the characters bring the colour. The local food industry is mindful; one eye on global food issues encourages smart, home-grown practices. Focusing on sustainability, biodiversity and traceable food systems, and producing wholesome, organic, nourishing food is our collective passion.

Our Taste of Wanaka half day immersive food adventure will see you explore some our favourite providers in Wanaka or Hawea taking you on a journey of the senses, combining a wild walk and commercial foraging with interactive food discovery sessions and grazing from morning to early afternoon, leaving you plenty of time to continue your food journey on your own or pack in more Wanaka activities.

From paddock to plate and everything in-between, you will be immersed in the stories of the local people who grow, produce and make our food. Hear from our local foodies and sample their delights in a feast of the senses. This is an immersive experience with some light walking involved.

Our Forage & Feast Wanaka full day immersive food adventure will see you explore lakes Wanaka and Hawea taking you on a journey combining wild and commercial foraging with interactive food discovery sessions and grazing all day long.
