MOUNT WARNING Tours and Taste Tweed have teamed up to launch an exciting new product that brings the amazing flavours of the Tweed directly to your home, known as the Taste Tweed Farm Tour in a Box.
As tourism and event operators have been among the hardest hit by the coronavirus pandemic, owners and operators are having to develop new ways to capture the imaginations and palates of locals and visitors.
The box is jam-packed with a feast for the senses, all grown from the rich volcanic soils of the Tweed direct to your home or business via an online purchasing system.
“Let us take you on a unique journey of our stunning Tweed Shire, nestled in one of the world’s most unique landscapes, and home to a thriving food bowl grown in fertile, volcanic soil,” Taste Tweed event coordinator Jayne Henry said.
“Everyone will love to take this Taste Tweed Farm Tour and meet some of our growers and makers of the region.”
Mount Warning Tours operator, Michael Simmons and Ms Henry have collaborated to produce a feast for the senses with a virtual farm tour complete with locally produced goodies and a complimentary bundle of extras.
The Taste Tweed Farm Tour in a Box comes to you with a selection of products made from locally grown produce in the Tweed Shire and Northern Rivers.
“From the Tweed Shire to your door, Taste Tweed Farm Tour in a Box includes tastings from Husk Farm Distillery (North Tumbulgum), Tropical Fruit World (Duranbah), Madura Tea Estates (Clothiers Creek), Bucks Farm (Chillingham) The Chilli Chick (Cudgen), Dona Cholitas (Burringbar), Flutterbies Cottage Cafe (Tyalgum) and Tyalgum Honey Thieves (Tyalgum), Tweed Shire and Farm Tour documentary, recipe cards and shopping list and a Mount Warning Tours Rainforest Cruise voucher (valued at $55) with an open validity date, and free delivery Australia wide,” Mr Simmons said.
“A documentary of local farms and makers which accompanies these tasting products gives a virtual tour of their farms and businesses, and an insight into the passion that inspired the vision without you having to leave your own lounge room.
“All purchasers of the Taste Tweed Farm Tour in a Box receive access to the members-only section of the Mount Warning Tours website where you will find interactive photo trails and exclusive content only available to members.
“People are also able to experience the very best quality Tweed products from our local food artisans presented by Taste Tweed guru Jayne Henry and award-winning local chefs in an online webinar.”
