Valentines Day in the country 2023

Wickedfood Earth Country Cooking School is offering 2 very special and different Valentines day experiences this year.  This year marks a very special milestone where over 95% of the food cooked and served at the event will either be harvested off the farm or gathered from small scale farmers within a 5km radius of the farm. In addition it will be the first time the public will have the opportunity to taste and cook with our new crossbreed pork.
