Five food finds
APPLES
Whether bought on the side of the road or transformed into cider, no trip to the Huon Valley is complete without a taste
of its rosy fruit.
WALLABY
If you can get your head around eating wallaby, the best place to try this sustainable, native meat is in a pie at Summer Kitchen Organic Bakery in Ranelagh.
WINE
The cool climate and sunshine in the Huon Valley offer ideal conditions to grow Chardonnay
and Pinot Noir. To try them, visit Kate Hill Wines, Elsewhere Vineyard, Home Hill
or Hartzview.
LITTLE BLACK FRIDGE
Swing by 9 Britcliffes Road in Geeveston for an honesty fridge filled with brownies, giant cookies and caramels flavoured with local stout. Leave cash in the letterbox
or complete a bank transfer.
SASSAFRAS SPIRIT
Down south in Dover, Bakehouse Distillery is home to Evoke, the world’s first sassafras spirit inspired by Tasmania’s
ancient rainforests.
