Farmgate Experience - Mornington Peninsula

Only an hour’s drive from Melbourne awaits the gorgeous Mornington Peninsula and Red Hill.

With outstanding vineyards, restaurants, orchards, food stores and artisan producers, there is really something for everyone. The region allows you to enjoy a farm-to-table experience and meet the local farmers and producers or hop from one cellar door to the next.

The unique maritime climate of the Mornington Peninsula creates an abundant and rich ground ideal for growing a large range of produce including avocados, artichokes, broccoli, beetroot, strawberries, heirloom vegetables and herbs. Plus farms focusing on goats dairy products and farming lamb, beef and chicken. You will also find an array of locally harvested mussels, truffles, olives, garlic and wine.

Throughout your Farmgate adventure, you’ll be collecting everything you need to cook up a hearty roast dinner at home. Beginning your day with a morning tea, collect seasonal ingredients for dinner from top artisan vendors, learning about organic and sustainable food systems and engaging with friendly local providers as you go.

Once you’ve returned home for the day, you’ll have full access to everything required to prepare your roast dinner including recipe instructions, fun games, and conversation starters to enjoy throughout the night.
