This event is for YFC Members and non-members alike - all welcome - come and join our community of peer-support
An awesome day out with heaps of opportunities to learn and hear from Erika and Hayden who are dedicating to regenerative and collaborative practices to provide people with connection to land, arts and food.
They are first generation young farmers growing organic vegetables for Sydney restaurants and local community through their recently launched CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and part of a global movement to monitor agricultural practice and measure the regeneration of the environment for ecological improvement through the Land to Market - Ecological OutcomeVerification program.
Their farming practice and produce has gained great recognition though numerous Gold Medals in the delicious produce awards and has appeared in ABC Organic Gardener Magazine, ABC TV Gardening Australia, and various books and magazines in the last 7 years.
In partnership with Young Farmer Business Program we will be focussing on successful business strategy and enterprise opportunities for small scale farms in the region.
Epicurean Harvest have a great story to tell of their success and challenges as small farm operations and this event will provide a a great platform to discuss and explore of a range of the features of these enterprise.
Join us for a day of farm walks and talks while we continue to develop a community of support, build our regional network and local industry engagement
