The transformation of pork is miraculous. Sweet fresh leg meat can become fragrant prosciutto given salt and time. Minced shoulder cures into mouthwatering salami. Middles can become luscious smoky bacon, delicately spiced pancetta, or complex tasting lonzo. Join us on a two day workshop exploring the art and alchemy of pork butchery.

A special spring feast to celebrate Samantha Connew's new season wines. Sam is a brilliant winemaker based just outside Hobart in the Coal River Valley. Stargazer is her brand. This will be a chance for us all to try her latest releases. Brand new Tupelo, two different rieslings, one from Sam's own Palisander vineyard and her fulsome pinot, boasting lean tannin and mouthwatering depth. We can’t wait to see what we can gather on the farm that week to match with Sam's exceptional wines.

"The intense palate is all class, blending purity, precision and power." James Halliday on Sam's 2019 Pinot
