Wollongong’s food waste legends Hidden Harvest invite you to our annual community art extravaganza: the Art of Food Waste! Join us as we leave our kitchens to play with food in a whole new context: Project Contemporary Gallery.

In collaboration with Healthy Cities Illawarra we’re bringing together a panel of interesting humans to chat about building food resilience in our communities. Hear insights from those actively contributing to building a stronger local food system, and explore what is needed to make things better now and in the future. We are over the moon to welcome:

A researcher, sustainability-doer and “waste not” home chef that has been exploring the important intersection of community-based initiatives and government policy.

🍎 Berbel Franse

Founder of Hidden Harvest, Coordinator of community coalition Food Fairness Illawarra and driver behind the recently launched Wollongong Online Farmers Market, Berbel is a passionate advocate for a fairer, more resilient food system.

🍐 Cliodhna Maquire

🥪 GOURMET TOASTIES
Hidden Harvest’s art happens in the kitchen: we transform would-be wasted produce into gourmet toasties for your eating pleasure! Our toasties are made with love, and each serving helps us change waste into taste. Vegan & Vegetarian options available.

🍺 FRESH TINNIES
Local gin connoisseurs Births & Deaths have teamed up with South Coast Distillery to create a delicious gin tinnie for your sippin’ pleasure: Citriodora Explora. Bursting with notes of Lemon Myrtle, it’ll freshen your Sunday right up. We’ll also have non-alcoholic tinnies available.

We would like to acknowledge that this event is taking place on the land of the Dharawal peoples, and wish to pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging; that sovereignty was never ceded, and this always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.
