It all begins on Saturday, October 3rd, the Penrith Valley Food Festival at the Hawkesbury Harvest Farmers and Fine Food Market and continues for an entire month of culinary treats and mouth watering delights.
This blog entry is going to sound like one big 'ad' so you'll have to excuse me but there's just so much to tell, that it seems like the only way to get the message across.
Ok, let's get back into it.
The next event on the menu or...should I say....on the list...is the Hubertus Oktoberfest from October 2-5th. After that it's the main course, Mamre 100 Mile Dinner on October 16th followed by some nice desert in the form of the Good Living Festival: "Wine Food & the Good Life" and if you're still hungry, finish the meal with Queen Bee High tea and Honey Open Day on Sunday, October 25th.
