What We'll Do

6.30 pm - Learn - Garden to Table: Recipes from Our Permaculture Community

Presented by our Members

What We'll Learn

Join us for a delicious start to the year as several of our Permaculture Toowoomba Inc. members share their favourite “garden to table” recipes using fresh, homegrown, seasonal ingredients.

Taste a variety of flavours, gather new ideas for your own kitchen, and be inspired by how local food can nourish both people and planet.

It will be a relaxed evening of sharing, connection, and celebrating the abundance from our gardens. What better way to welcome the new year!

Do you have a recipe or two you'd like to share?

If you do, we'd love to hear and taste your favourite recipes.

• Please bring a printed copy of your recipes. Or a hand written copy is fine. Other attendees can then take a photo of your recipe. We also plan to collate all shared recipes into a PDF recipe book to send to all members.

• Be ready to tell us about your recipe ingredients and method, and why it's a favourite.

• If possible bring a prepared sample for us to taste. (Not essential, but a great way to showcase your recipe and share flavours with attendees.)

If you don't have a recipe, please join us and learn from other members.

If you have any questions, please phone Debbie on 0407374883.

7.45 pm – Connect – Light Supper (provided) and Share Table

A light supper will be served (including Gluten Free and Vegan options).

Please bring your own KeepCup or mug so we can reduce waste.

Sharing of produce on the Share Table opens after the presentation to allow plenty of time for everyone to place their donations, and then allow you to browse, connect and make your selections during supper.

Parking

Free off-street parking is available under the library (enter from Victoria Street).

Access

The venue has access for wheelchairs, walking frames, and strollers as needed. Everyone is welcome (including children with parental supervision).

We hope we see you there!

What to Bring

• KeepCup or similar for your drink at supper (we're trying to minimise waste) 

• Donations of surplus produce for the Share Table
