Meals in the Fields in Port Macquarie Hinterlands

A gastronomic experience in the pristine Greater Port Macquarie hinterland is on offer when Near River Produce hosts Meals in the Fields on Saturday 29 March 2014.

A genuine paddock-to-plate event, the event will feature a sunset dinner with fine food from the fields.

Chef Blake Dyer, from famed local restaurant The Corner, will serve four courses matched with local Cassegrain wines and beer from The Little Brewing Company. Ethically pasture-raised produce from Andrew and Therese Hearne’s farm takes centre-stage on the menu with pork, poultry, fresh vegetables and eggs.

Upon arrival, enjoy canapés, wander around the market garden, and chat with the team from Near River Produce about their sustainable farming practices and the challenges and the successes they have experienced since establishing the farm six years ago.

Near River Produce is located in the hinterland, 45kms inland from Port Macquarie. There are sealed roads to the farm gate.

Make a weekend of it, enjoying other farm-gates, wineries, cafes and restaurants in the region. Accommodation can be sourced in Port Macquarie or through a variety of B&Bs closer to the property.

Port Macquarie is just four hours’ drive from Sydney on the newly upgraded Pacific Highway. There are also direct flights from Sydney and Brisbane.
